Question

Question below contains a Statement on relationship and a question regarding relationship hased on the Statement. .
Introducing a man, a woman said, "He is the only son of my mother's mother." How is the woman related to the man?

• A. Mother
• B. Aunt
• C. Sister
• D. Niece

Hint:

Avoid impossible relations (like a grandmother's son being also the woman's spouse); use biological constraints to resolve ambiguity.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

"My mother's mother" = the woman's maternal grandmother.
The "only son" of the maternal grandmother must be the woman's maternal uncle (since the woman's mother is a daughter of that grandmother; the son cannot be her father without implying incest).
Therefore the man is the woman's maternal uncle, and the woman is his niece.
Hence the correct option is (d) Niece.
