State reason if any

[goodstudent]

After asking a question (for example: which fruit do you like?), I want to know the reason too.

So how should I say it?

I am not sure how to say it, I want to say something like:

Which fruit do you like? State reasons if any? / Any reasons? / Explain your choice

"State reasons if any? / Any reasons? / Explain your choice" seems wrong? Any better suggestions?

Thanks

Keep it simple!

Goodstudent: Which fruit do you like?
Tom: I like apples!
Goodstudent: Why do you like apples?
Tom: I like apples because they are delicious!

I am asking a question. I mean it in written form. The other person will just take the form and fill in the answers

Is it correct to write:

Which fruit do you like? State reasons if any?
Which fruit do you like? Any reasons?
Which fruit do you like? Write your reason if any?

Which fruit do you like? State reasons if any.

That's OK, but it's a very strange question to ask on a form..

Possibly: "State which fruit you like and the reason, if any, for your preference".

I'm not sure that you need "if any", I think everyone will have some reason, even if it's just "it tastes better".
