Question

Pointing to a photograph Lata says, "He is the son of the only son of my grandfather."
How is the man in the photograph related to Lata ?

The correct answer is
Brother

This question requires us to carefully analyze the statement made by Lata to determine the relationship between the man in the photograph and Lata herself.

Lata's Grandfather Analysis

Lata says, "He is the son of the only son of my grandfather."

Let's break down the statement:

  • First, consider "my grandfather". This refers to Lata's grandfather.
  • Next, analyze "the only son of my grandfather". Since Lata's grandfather has only one son, this specific son must be Lata's father.

Identifying Lata's Father

From the previous step, we established that "the only son of my grandfather" is indeed Lata's father.

Determining the Man's Relation

Now, let's look at the full statement again: "He is the son of the only son of my grandfather."

We know that "the only son of my grandfather" is Lata's father.

So, the statement simplifies to: "He is the son of Lata's father."

If a person is the son of Lata's father, that person is Lata's brother.

Therefore, the man in the photograph is Lata's brother.
