Pointing to a girl in a photograph, Aman told his friend, “She is the only daughter of the mother of my brother’s sister.” How is the girl related to Aman?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → Sister
Read the sentence from the end. A sister of one’s brother is one’s own sister, and a mother with only one daughter has no other girl.
Aman is a boy (“his friend”), so his brother’s sister is Aman’s sister
The mother of Aman’s sister is Aman’s mother
Aman’s mother has only one daughter, and Aman’s sister is her daughter, so that only daughter is Aman’s sister
So the girl in the photograph is Aman’s sister
