Question

There was a party organized and the following members attended the party : Sheela, Amruta, Rohit, Rahul, Ajey, Ranveer and Gauri. Sheela is mother-in-law of Amruta, who is sister-in-law of Rohit. Rahul is the father of Ajey. Ajey is the brother of Rohit. Ranveer is the only brother of Rahul and the father-in-law of Gauri. Gauri was married to Rohit. How is Sheela related to Ranveer ?

• A. cousin
• B. mother
• C. sister
• D. none of the above

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

To solve the problem of determining Sheela's relation to Ranveer, we need to analyze the relationships given in the problem step-by-step:

1. Sheela is the mother-in-law of Amruta. 
2. Amruta is the sister-in-law of Rohit, which implies Amruta is married to Rohit's sibling.
3. Rahul is the father of Ajey and therefore, Rohit and Ajey are siblings.
4. Ranveer is the only brother of Rahul, making Ranveer the uncle of both Ajey and Rohit.
5. Ranveer is the father-in-law of Gauri, meaning Gauri is married to Ranveer's child. Given Gauri is married to Rohit, Gauri is Ranveer's daughter-in-law.
6. Considering Sheela is Amruta's mother-in-law and Amruta is married to Rohit's brother (implying Amruta is married to Ajey), Sheela is likely Ajey's mother.
7. If Sheela is Ajey's mother, she is also Rohit's and therefore Rahul's wife.

Thus, Sheela is the sister-in-law of Ranveer, being Rahul's wife.

Since "sister-in-law" is not an option given, option "none of the above" is correct.
