Question

Pointing to a girl, Aryan said, "She is the daughter of the only child of my grandmother." How is the girl related to Aryan?

1. A. Niece
2. B. Cousin
3. C. Sister (Correct answer)
4. D. Aunt

Correct Answer

Option C — Sister

Detailed Solution & Explanation

The correct answer is Sister.

Key Points

• Resolve the innermost phrase first: "the only child of my grandmother" must be Aryan's parent — grandmother had exactly one child.
• The girl is the daughter of that parent.
• A daughter of Aryan's own parent is Aryan's sister.

Additional Information

• The phrase *only child* is doing all the work. Without it, the grandmother could have several children and the girl might be a cousin, which is precisely what option B offers.
• Note that the grandmother's only child could be Aryan's mother or father; either way the daughter of that person is Aryan's sister, so the answer does not depend on which.
• Build the chain outward one link at a time — grandmother → her only child → that child's daughter — and write each link down rather than holding three generations in your head at once.
