Sister

Understanding the Codes

First, let's understand what each code represents in this specific language:

  • 'A + B' means 'A is the daughter of B'
  • 'A - B' means 'A is the husband of B'
  • 'A × B' means 'A is the mother of B'
  • 'A ÷ B' means 'A is the father of B'

Decoding the Expression: A × B + C ÷ D

Now, let's break down the expression A × B + C ÷ D step by step to figure out the relationships.

Step 1: Analyzing A × B

According to the code, A × B means 'A is the mother of B'.

This tells us:

  • A is female.
  • A is the parent (mother) of B.

Step 2: Analyzing B + C

The expression continues with '+ C', meaning the relationship is between B and C. So, we look at 'B + C', which means 'B is the daughter of C'.

This tells us:

  • B is female.
  • B is the child (daughter) of C.

Combining Step 1 and Step 2: We know A is the mother of B, and B is the daughter of C. Since B has a mother (A), C must be the father of B.

So far:

  • A is the mother (Female) of B.
  • C is the father (Male) of B.
  • B is the daughter (Female) of A and C.

Step 3: Analyzing C ÷ D

The expression ends with '÷ D', meaning the relationship is between C and D. So, we look at 'C ÷ D', which means 'C is the father of D'.

This tells us:

  • C is male.
  • C is the parent (father) of D.

Step 4: Determining the Relationship of B to D

Let's combine all the information:

  • From Step 2, we know C is the father of B.
  • From Step 3, we know C is the father of D.
  • This means B and D share the same father, C.
  • From Step 2, we also know that B is female.

Since B and D have the same father (C) and B is female, B is the sister of D.

Final Conclusion

Based on the step-by-step decoding of the expression A × B + C ÷ D and the given codes, B is related to D as her Sister.
