Question

A says to B, 'I am the mother of your grandfather's son.' How is A related to B?

• A. Grandmother
• B. Sister
• C. Daughter
• D. Grandson

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

To solve this logical reasoning problem, let's break down the relationships and find out how A is related to B.

1. A says to B, "I am the mother of your grandfather's son." 
2. Let's analyze "your grandfather's son":
   • "Your" refers to B.
   • "Grandfather's" refers to B's grandfather.
   • "Grandfather's son" would be B's father, assuming here that the grandfather has a son and not a daughter who could be another parent figure.
3. Therefore, "the mother of your grandfather's son" translates to "the mother of B's father."
4. The mother of one's father is one's grandmother.

Thus, A is B's grandmother.

Now, let's examine why the other options are incorrect:

• Sister: A cannot be B's sister because B's sister would not fit the description of being the "mother of your grandfather's son."
• Daughter: A cannot be B's daughter because the daughter would be a child of B.
• Grandson: A cannot be B's grandson because the grandson refers to a male descendent of B, while A is described as a mother.

Therefore, the correct answer is Grandmother.
