Pointing to a man, a woman said, "His brother's father is the only son of my grandfather." How is the woman related to the man?

A Sister
B Mother
C Aunt
D Daughter
Correct Answer & Explanation
Option A
Let's break down the statement: • "My grandfather" refers to the woman's paternal or maternal grandfather. • "The only son of my grandfather" means the woman's father (if paternal grandfather) or her mother's brother (if maternal grandfather, but usually 'only son' implies the direct lineage). • Given the context of 'only son of my grandfather', it implies the woman's father. • "His brother's father" refers to the man's father. • So, the man's father is the woman's father. • This means the man and the woman are siblings. • Therefore, the woman is the man's sister.
