'A - B' means 'A is the father of B',
'A x B' means 'A is the brother of B' and
'A & B' means 'A is the sister of B'. 
How is Q related to N if N-DxP + Q & C?

The correct answer is
Daughter's daughter

Understanding the Code Language

The problem provides a specific code language to represent family relationships. It's important to understand each rule clearly before applying it to the given expression.

Code Meaning
A + B A is the mother of B
A - B A is the father of B
A x B A is the brother of B
A & B A is the sister of B

Decoding the Family Relationship Expression

The core task is to decipher the relationship puzzle presented by the expression: N - D x P + Q & C. We will break this down step-by-step, applying the defined rules.

  • Step 1: Analyze N - D
    Using the rule 'A - B' means 'A is the father of B', we deduce that N is the father of D. This tells us N is male.
  • Step 2: Analyze D x P
    Using the rule 'A x B' means 'A is the brother of B', we find that D is the brother of P. Since D is male, P is D's sibling. As established in Step 1, N is the father of D. Therefore, N is also the father of P.
  • Step 3: Analyze P + Q
    Using the rule 'A + B' means 'A is the mother of B', we determine that P is the mother of Q. This confirms that P is female. Since N is the father of P (from Step 2), and P is the mother of Q, it means P is N's daughter. Consequently, N is the father of his daughter, P.
  • Step 4: Analyze Q & C
    Using the rule 'A & B' means 'A is the sister of B', we learn that Q is the sister of C. This confirms that Q is female. While this detail is useful for Q's gender, it doesn't change the established relationship between N and Q.

Determining Q's Relation to N

Now, let's combine the information derived from the steps above to understand the connection between Q and N:

  • From Step 3, we established that N is the father of P.
  • From Step 3, we also know that P is the mother of Q.

Putting these together, N is the father of Q's mother. This makes N the maternal grandfather of Q.

The question asks specifically how Q is related to N. Since N is the maternal grandfather, Q is his grandchild.

To be more precise, N's daughter is P, and P is Q's mother. Therefore, Q is the daughter of N's daughter.

This relationship signifies that Q is N's granddaughter. The option "Daughter's daughter" accurately describes this granddaughter relationship from N's perspective.
