Question:

Introducing a girl to his girlfriend, Ajay said," Her only brother's mother is the only child of my grandmother." How is Ajay related to this girl?

Options:

Brother

Brother-in law

Cousin

Father

Correct Answer:

Brother

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → Brother

Statement: "Her only brother's mother is the only child of my grandmother."

Let’s decode:

  • Ajay says: Her only brother's mother = the girl’s mother.
  • That woman (the girl’s mother) = the only child of Ajay's grandmother.
  • So, the girl's mother is Ajay's mother.

Hence, the girl is the daughter of Ajay's mother ⇒ the girl is Ajay's sister.

Final relation: Ajay is the brother of the girl.
