Pointing to a photograph, Prakaash said, “She is the daughter of my grandfather’s only son”. How is Prakaash related to the girl in the photograph?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

The correct choice is: “Brother”

Prakaash’s grandfather’s only son is Prakaash’s father (his paternal grandfather has only one son, who must be Prakaash’s father). The daughter of Prakaash’s father is Prakaash’s sister. So Prakaash is the girl’s brother.

“Cousin” would need the grandfather to have another son, which “only son” rules out. “Uncle” and “Father” belong to the wrong generation.
