If A $ B means A is son of B, A # B means A is brother of B and If A * B means A is father of B, then what does X $ Y # Z * W mean?
X is son of W's father's brother
Understanding the Symbols
The problem defines three relationship symbols:
- $A $ B$ means A is the son of B.
- $A # B$ means A is the brother of B.
- $A * B$ means A is the father of B.
Decoding the Expression: $X $ Y # Z * W$
We need to break down the expression step-by-step from right to left:
- $Z * W$: This means 'Z is the father of W'.
- $Y # Z$: This means 'Y is the brother of Z'. Since Z is the father of W, Y is the brother of W's father.
- $X $ Y$: This means 'X is the son of Y'.
Establishing the Relationship
Combining the steps:
- X is the son of Y.
- Y is the brother of Z.
- Z is the father of W.
Since X is the son of Y, and Y is the brother of Z (who is W's father), X is the son of W's father's brother.
Final Answer Derivation
The relationship derived, "X is the son of W's father's brother", matches the meaning provided in Option 4.
