Question

If ‘A × B’ means that ‘A is the sister of B’, ‘A ÷ B’ means that ‘A is the daughter of B’, ‘A – B’ means that ‘A is the son of B’, then how is P related to S in relationship P – Q × R ÷ S ?

• A. Son
• B. None of these
• C. Grandson
• D. Brother

Answer 1

The correct option is C Grandson

We have the convetions to represent relations as:
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|} \hline Symbols in Diagram & Meaning \\ \hline Female \\ \hline\( \square \) & Male \\ \hline\( \square \) & Married couple \\ \hline\( \square \) & Siblings Difference of a generation \\ \hline \end{tabular}
Therefore, we can draw the diagram using the data given in the question as:
R's mother/father P's mother \( P \)
It is clearly seen from the diagram that S is P’s mother’s mother/father. Means P is grandson of S.
