Pointing towards a lady in a picture, Purnima said, "She is the mother of Neha, whose father is my son." How is Purnima related to the lady in the picture?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Purnima is the lady's mother-in-law. Neha's father is Purnima's son, and the lady is Neha's mother, so the lady is the wife of Purnima's son, that is, Purnima's daughter-in-law. Purnima is thus her husband's mother, not her own mother or aunt, and sister-in-law would wrongly put the two women in the same generation.
