is it "more than one orange" or "more than one oranges"?
I wonder which "more than" modifies, "one" or "one orange" of a set of the two words?
if it's only "one", "more than one" modifies "oranges" to mean "2+oranges".
if it's the other, "more than" modifies "one orange" to mean
"2+ oranges".
thank you!

It is "more than one Orange"
Orange is singular in this case.
If the sentence reads "more than two" (or more) then, it becomes Oranges.
