Correct Answer & Explanation
Option B
We need to find an expression where P is the maternal uncle of Q. This means P is the brother of Q's mother.
Let's analyze the options:
• P - M + Q:
• P - M means P is the brother of M.
• M + Q means M is the mother of Q.
• So, P is the brother of Q's mother. This makes P the maternal uncle of Q.
• Let's check other options to confirm:
• Q - N + P: Q is the brother of N, N is the mother of P. P is the son/daughter of Q's sister/brother.
• P + N - Q: P is the mother of N, N is the brother of Q. P is the mother of Q.
• Q + P - N: Q is the mother of P, P is the brother of N. P is Q's son, and N is P's sibling. So Q is the mother of N.
• Therefore, P - M + Q correctly represents 'P is the maternal uncle of Q'.
