Question

In a certain code language, 

‘A + B’ means ‘A is the mother of B’; 

‘A − B’ means ‘A is the brother of B’; 

‘A × B’ means ‘A is the wife of B’ and 

‘A ÷ B’ means ‘A is the father of B’. 

Based on the above, how is A related to D if ‘A × B ÷ C × D’?

The correct answer is

Wife’s mother

To determine how A is related to D in the expression “A × B ÷ C × D”, we will decode the sequence step by step based on the provided relationships.

  1. A × B: According to the given code, ‘A × B’ means ‘A is the wife of B’. Thus, A is the wife of B.
  2. B ÷ C: In the code, ‘B ÷ C’ means ‘B is the father of C’. Therefore, B is the father of C.
  3. C × D: Similarly, ‘C × D’ means ‘C is the wife of D’. Therefore, C is the wife of D.

Now, let's combine these relationships:

  • A is the wife of B. Therefore, A is B's spouse.
  • B is the father of C. This implies C is the child of B and A (since A is B's wife).
  • C is the wife of D. Hence, D is C's husband.

Since D is married to C, the child of A and B, A is D's mother-in-law. Therefore, A is related to D as the "Wife's mother".

Thus, the correct answer is "Wife’s mother".
