A man pointing to a photograph says, 'The lady in the photograph is my nephew's maternal grandmother.' How is the lady in the photograph related to the man's sister who has no other sister?
Explanation:
The man's nephew's maternal grandmother is the mother of the nephew's mother. Since the man's sister has no other sister, the nephew's mother is the man's sister. Therefore, the lady in the photograph is the mother of the man's sister.
A * B means 'A is the father of B'. A + B means 'A is the son of B'. A - B means 'A is the brother of B'. A & B means 'A is the sister of B'. If 'W * Q & R - S + T', then what is the relation of W to T?
Explanation:
W is father of Q. Q is sister of R. R is brother of S. S is son of T. Therefore, W is T's father, making W the grandfather of S and ancestor of T's child.
