Question:

Pointing to an image Madhu tells Sohan, "I am the only daughter of this lady, and her son is your maternal uncle." How is Madhu related to Sohan's father?

Options:

Wife

Sister

Sister in law

None of these

Correct Answer:

Wife

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 1: Wife

Madhu says: “I am the only daughter of this lady” → the lady is Madhu’s mother.

  • “Her son is your maternal uncle” → that son is Sohan’s mother’s brother.  So, the lady is Sohan’s maternal grandmother.
  • Therefore, Madhu (daughter of that lady) is Sohan’s mother.
  • Hence, Madhu is wife of Sohan’s father.

Summary of the family structure:

  • Lady in image: Grandmother (Maternal)

  • Lady's Son: Maternal Uncle

  • Madhu: Mother

  • Madhu to Sohan's Father: Wife
