Pointing to a man in a photograph, a woman said, “He is the son of my paternal grandmother’s only son.” How is the man related to the woman?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → Brother
A paternal grandmother is the mother of one’s father, so her only son is the speaker’s father.
The woman’s father is a son of her paternal grandmother, and the grandmother has only one son
So the paternal grandmother’s only son is the woman’s father
The man is the son of the woman’s father, so he is her brother
