Blood Relation Coding Puzzle Solution
The question requires identifying the coded expression that signifies 'R is a brother of P' using the provided relationship definitions.
Understanding the Relationship Codes
- $A & B$: A is the mother of B (A is female)
- $A $ B$: A is the brother of B (A is male)
- $A # B$: A is the sister of B (A is female)
- $A @ B$: A is the father of B (A is male)
- $A % B$: A is the daughter of B (A is female)
- $A * B$: A is the son of B (A is male)
Analyzing Options for 'R is brother of P'
Option 1: $P * Q % R$
- $P * Q$ indicates P is the son of Q (P is male).
- $Q % R$ indicates Q is the daughter of R (Q is female).
- This establishes P as male and R as a grandparent, but not necessarily R as P's brother.
Option 2: $R * Q & P$
- $R * Q$ indicates R is the son of Q (R is male).
- $Q & P$ indicates Q is the mother of P (Q is female).
- Since R is the son of Q (male) and Q is the mother of P, R and P are siblings sharing the same mother. Therefore, R is the brother of P. This matches the required condition.
Option 3: $Q % P & R$
- $Q % P$ indicates Q is the daughter of P (Q is female).
- $P & R$ indicates P is the mother of R (P is female).
- This states P is R's mother. As P is female, R cannot be P's brother.
Option 4: $Q * R & P$
- $Q * R$ indicates Q is the son of R (Q is male).
- $R & P$ indicates R is the mother of P (R is female).
- This states R is P's mother. As R is female, R cannot be P's brother.
Conclusion
Option 2, $R * Q & P$, is the correct expression because it accurately defines R as male and establishes R and P as siblings through their mother Q, fulfilling the condition 'R is a brother of P'.
