Question

If ‘X @ Y’ means X is the son of Y, ‘X # Y’ means X is the wife of Y, and ‘X % Y’ means X is the brother of Y, and if D is male, what is the relationship of A with D in the expression A @ B # C % D ?

This question was previously asked in
UPSSSC PET 2026 Question Paper (30-Oct-2026) (Shift-2)
The correct answer is

A is the nephew of D

Decode each part: A @ B means A is the son of B; B # C means B is the wife of C; C % D means C is the brother of D.

So B and C are husband and wife, and A is their son; therefore A is the son of C.

C is the brother of D (D is male), so D is A's father's brother, that is A's paternal uncle. A son of one's brother is one's nephew.

Check: D → brother C → son A; a brother's son is a nephew, not a son or grandson.

Hence, A is the nephew of D.
