A P × Q ÷ R + S
B P ÷ Q × R + S
C P + Q × R - S
D P ÷ Q + R × S
Correct Answer & Explanation
Option D
Let's analyze each option: • We need to find P as the sister of S. This means P must be female and P and S must share parents or at least one common parent, with P being in the same generation as S. Let's check option D: P ÷ Q + R × S • P ÷ Q: P is the daughter of Q (P is female). • Q + R: Q is the father of R. • R × S: R is the brother of S. From these, we have: • P is Q's daughter. • Q is R's father. • R is S's brother. This implies Q is the father of P and R. Since R is S's brother, Q is also S's father. Thus, P, R, and S are siblings, and P is female. Therefore, P is the sister of S.
