3 Jars question
There are 3 jars. one Jar has all red balls, Another has all white balls, and Third Jar has red and white balls mixed. Labels are incorrect on Jars.
Q - Can you identify which Jar has which colour balls. (Number of balls are infinite in the jars so removing all of them will not help)
