There are seven members in a family. There is no single parent. P is the only daughter of S. M is the grandmother of X. K is the brother-in-law of B. S is the husband of M. A is the only niece of B. How many male members are there in the family?

1. Two
2. Three
3. Four
4. Either two or three

Correct answer: Four

Solution

Since M is the grandmother and S is her husband, M is female and S is male. P is the only daughter of S, so P is female; A is the only niece of B, which helps identify another female member. With the remaining relations, the family has four male members.
