  • Question
  • Question: How is M related to N?

    Statements:

    1. P, who has only two kids, M and N, is the mother-in-law of Q, who is sister-in-law of N.
    2. R, the sister-in-law of M, is the daughter-in-law of S, who has only two kids, M and N.


  • Options
  • A. I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient
  • B. II alone is sufficient while I alone is not sufficient
  • C. Either I or II is sufficient
  • D. Neither I nor II is sufficient
  • E. Both I and II are sufficient

  • Correct Answer
  • I alone is sufficient while II alone is not sufficient 

    Explanation
    From I, we conclude that P is the mother of M and N, while Q is the daughter-in-law of P and sister-in-law of N. Thus, Q is M's wife and hence, M is N's brother.

    From II, we conclude that M and N are the children of S. Also, R is the daughter-in-law of S and sister-in-law of M. So, R is N's wife and thus, N is M's brother. Hence, M is either brother or sister of N.
