In a coded family tree: 'P + Q' means 'P is the husband of Q'. 'P % Q' means 'P is the father of Q'. 'P $ Q' means 'P is the mother of Q'. Given the chain: Y + Z $ H % C $ D + S, which of the following statements is INCORRECT?
- C is the mother-in-law of S.
- H is the maternal grandfather of D.
- H is the son of Y.
- Z is the maternal grandmother of C.
Correct answer: Z is the maternal grandmother of C.
Solution
Z is the mother of H, and H is the father of C — so Z is C's paternal grandmother, NOT the maternal grandmother. Maternal grandmother means the mother's mother, which does not apply here. All other three statements are correct.
