Question

Pointing to a lady Jayant says, "She is the sister of Prikshit, who is the brother of Dushyant and the brother of Abha."
Abha is the sister-in-law of Jayant and she has only one sister.
How is Jayant related to that lady?

This question was previously asked in
RRB NTPC 2019 CBT 1 Question Paper (8-Mar-2021) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is
Husband

To determine how Jayant is related to the lady mentioned in the question, we need to carefully analyze the given relationships:

  1. Jayant points to a lady and says, "She is the sister of Prikshit, who is the brother of Dushyant and the brother of Abha."
  2. From this, we can infer that Prikshit, Dushyant, Abha, and the lady are siblings, with Prikshit being their brother. Therefore, the lady is the sister of Prikshit.
  3. It is also mentioned that Abha is the sister-in-law of Jayant and she has only one sister.

Now, let's break down these points:

  • Since Abha is the sister-in-law of Jayant, and she is mentioned to have only one sister, that means this sister must be the wife of Jayant, because the only other way Abha could be a sister-in-law to Jayant is if Jayant is married to Abha’s sister (the lady).

Given this analysis, the relationship of Jayant to the lady (who is the sister of Abha) is:

  • Husband

Thus, the correct answer is that Jayant is the husband of the lady he pointed to.
