Introducing a boy, a girl said, "He is the son of the daughter of the father of my uncle." How is the boy related to the girl?

1. Brother
2. Nephew
3. Uncle
4. Son-in-law

Correct answer: Brother

Solution

The father of my uncle is my grandfather. The daughter of my grandfather is my mother (or aunt), and the son of that daughter is the girl’s brother/relative; in the intended standard relation, it resolves to her brother. Hence, the boy is her brother.
