• D. Four

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Two

Q is the son of R but R is not the mother. So, R is the father of Q. P is married to R. So, P is the wife of R and the mother of Q. X is the daughter of P and hence of R and so she is the sister of Q. Y is the brother of R and Z is the brother of P.
Clearly, Q is the son of P and X is the daughter of P. So, P has two children.

option B.
