Blood relations – mapping to maternal grandmother: A man said to a woman, "Your brother's only sister is my mother." What is the relation of the woman with the man's maternal grandmother?

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: Daughter

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
We first identify who the woman is to the man and then infer her relation to the man's maternal grandmother.



Given Data / Assumptions:

  • "Your brother's only sister is my mother." If the woman's brother has only one sister, and that person is the man's mother, then the woman is that only sister ⇒ the man's mother.


Concept / Approach:
If the woman is the man's mother, her relation to the man's maternal grandmother (the woman's own mother) is simply "daughter."



Step-by-Step Solution:

Woman's brother → only sister = woman (unique).Given "only sister is my mother" ⇒ woman = man's mother.Man's maternal grandmother = woman's mother ⇒ woman is her daughter.


Verification / Alternative check:
Family tree labels confirm: GM (maternal) → Mother (woman) → Man. Relation asked is Daughter.



Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Mother/sister/niece/granddaughter misplace generations relative to the grandmother.



Common Pitfalls:
Assuming multiple sisters; the statement specifies "only sister."



Final Answer:
Daughter
