U is the mother of S. Q is the sister-in-law of S and wife of R. P is father of R. If S is T's wife, then how is P related to T?
A. father in law
B. Brother-in-law
C. son in law
D. Brother
Answer: Option A
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
S is T's wife → S female. Q is sister-in-law of S and wife of R → Q is wife of S's brother R. So R is brother of S. U mother of S → U mother of R also. P father of R → P husband of U, father of S and R. Thus P is father of S, so father-in-law of T.
Explanation:
The brother of the man's wife is the man's brother-in-law. This brother-in-law is the son of the lady's only brother. Thus, the lady's brother is the father of the man's wife. Therefore, the lady is the sister of the wife's father (father's sister).
Explanation:
Q's mother is P's sister and M's daughter, so M is parent of P's sister and P. Thus M is grandparent of T (child of P). 'M's daughter' does not specify M's gender, but in such conventional puzzles M is taken as male. Therefore M is either maternal or paternal grandfather of T.
