Question

Pointing to a woman a man said "Her father is the only son of my father." How is the man related to the woman?

• A. Son
• B. Father
• C. Brother
• D. Grandfather

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Father

The man is the father of the woman.

• "The only son of my father": Since the speaker is a man, his father's only son is the man himself (he has no brothers).

• "Her father is...": Replacing the phrase with the result from the first step, the sentence simplifies to: "Her father is me."

Therefore, the woman is the man's daughter, making the man her father.
