Blood Relation Decoding

This problem requires decoding a series of relationships presented in a specific code language to determine how one individual is related to another.

Understanding the Codes

  • \(A # B\) means A is the daughter of B.
  • \(A @ B\) means A is the brother of B.
  • \(A + B\) means A is the wife of B.
  • \(A - B\) means A is the father of B.

Analyzing the Expression: \(D # M + S @ P - R\)

We break down the given coded expression step-by-step:

  1. \(P - R\) implies P is the father of R. (P is male)
  2. \(S @ P\) implies S is the brother of P. (S is male)
  3. \(M + S\) implies M is the wife of S. (M is female)
  4. \(D # M\) implies D is the daughter of M. (D is female)

Tracing D's Relationship to R

Now, let's establish the connection from D to R:

  • D is the daughter of M.
  • Since M is the wife of S, D is also the daughter of S.
  • S is the brother of P.
  • P is the father of R.
  • Because S and P are brothers, S is the paternal uncle of R (R's father's brother).
  • D is the daughter of S, who is R's paternal uncle.
  • Therefore, D is the daughter of R's father's brother.

This relationship corresponds to the definition of a Father's brother's daughter.
