There are 9 members in a three-generation family: Anjali, Ram, Shyam, Piyush, Ragini, Himanshu, Neha, Shubham and Aditi. There are three married couples in the family. There are five males in the family. Shyam is the brother-in-law of Shubham, who is the daughter-in-law of Himanshu. Aditi and Shyam are unmarried members. Ragini is the grandmother of Shyam. Ram is the paternal uncle of Neha. Piyush is the maternal grandfather of Neha and father of Aditi. Himanshu is the brother-in-law of Aditi. How is Himanshu related to Ragini?

1. Daughter-in-law
2. Son-in-law
3. Son
4. Daughter

Correct answer: Son-in-law

Solution

From the clues, Ragini is the grandmother of Shyam, so she belongs to the older generation. Piyush is Aditi’s father, and Himanshu is the brother-in-law of Aditi, which places Himanshu as Aditi’s husband’s brother or sibling-in-law; the family structure makes Himanshu the son-in-law of Ragini.
