Fixed.

Edit: I would like to note that no where did the question indicate how many boxed lunches the person in question was obtaining :dr evil:

The poll is set to close in a few weeks, and once it does, I will post the correct answer exactly as worded by the source of this question.

Bah.  This is a lame duck questions.

1) We don't know if the person has chosen a boxed lunch at ALL
2) we don't know if the person has chosen a single boxed lunch
3) We don't know if the person is choosing his or her fruit based on the boxed lunch.  Maybe it's completely unrelated info.

The answer has to be "Not enough information."  Making us wait a few "weeks" to tell us it's a lame duck question is silly.

There are some situations in life where you just have to "play along".  No movie of fiction (and most based on true stories) can be enjoyed without a little bit of faith that the depicted events could actually occur.  This question was part of a general listening and comprehension test that tests for the retention and application abilities of technology students.
