Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

To solve the given problem, we need to analyze the familial relationships described by Ram. Here's a detailed breakdown:

1. Ram states, "Anu's mother is the only daughter of my mother."

2. Interpretation of the sentence:

   • "Anu's mother" refers to the person in focus.
   • "is the only daughter of my mother" implies that the person referred to as "Anu's mother" is also Ram's sister because she is the daughter of Ram's mother and described as "the only daughter."

3. Conclusion:

   • Since Anu's mother is Ram's sister, it follows that Anu is the child of Ram's sister.
   • The term for one's sister's child is "Niece."

Therefore, Anu is related to Ram as his Niece.

Answer 2

Let us analyze the statement step-by-step: 
1. "Anu's mother is the only daughter of my mother" means: 
$\rightarrow$ Ram's mother has only one daughter. 
$\rightarrow$ That one daughter is Anu's mother. 
So, Anu's mother is Ram’s sister. 
2. If Anu's mother is Ram's sister, then Anu is the daughter of Ram’s sister. 
Hence, by relationship, Anu is Ram’s niece. 
Relationship Chain: 
Ram's mother $\Rightarrow$ only daughter (Ram's sister) $\Rightarrow$ Anu is her daughter $\Rightarrow$ Anu is Ram’s niece. 
Therefore, Anu is related to Ram as his niece.
