A is B's brother. C is A's mother. D is C's father. E is D's mother. How is A related to D?
Correct answer: A. Grandson
- A. Grandson
- B. Great grandson
- C. Son
- D. Nephew
Explanation
C is A's mother and D is C's father, so D is A's maternal grandfather and A is D's grandson. E, being D's mother, is A's great grandmother and is included only as a distractor. Counting the generational steps carefully is what separates grandson from great grandson.
