Question

A family consists of members A, B, C, D, E and F. B is the son of C but C is not the mother of B. A and C are a married couple. E is the brother of C. D is the daughter of A. F is the brother of A. How many female members are there in the family?

• A. One
• B. Two
• C. Three
• D. Four

Hint:

Carefully analyze relationships and genders from clues. Gender often comes from relationship context (mother, daughter, wife).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Let’s deduce step by step: - B is son of C, but C is not the mother ⇒ C is the father of B
- A and C are a married couple ⇒ A is the wife ⇒ Female
- D is daughter of A ⇒ Female
- E is brother of C ⇒ Male
- F is brother of A ⇒ Male
So female members = A and D ⇒ 2 females
