White & black.
Since they are labeled incorrectly, if you pick a black one out of the white & black jar, mark it black and switch the labels on the other 2 jars.

White&Black

The poster above is correct. The white/black jar is guaranteed to have at least 1 marble that matches the label, as you only have two colors to choose from.

white and black

any jar, becuz if u pick from the white jar it will be either black or white and black, just say its black. u know have 2 jars left, one says white and bla k the other says blak, if blak comes out of the jar u know that the others jars have black n white and white. considering the jars dont have the right ones in them then obviously blak n white cant be in the blak n white jar which means white must be in the blak n white jar and blak n white must be in the blak jar

works all ways

White and black.
