Let's analyze the statement step-by-step: Statement:
Sohan said to Mohan, "This girl is the wife of the grandson of my mother."
Step 1: Identify the key people in the statement
- Sohan (the speaker)
- The girl (the person being referred to)
- The grandson of Sohan's mother
Step 2: Understand the relationships
- "My mother" refers to Sohan's mother.
- The "grandson of my mother" means the grandson of Sohan's mother.
- Since Sohan's mother is the grandmother, her grandson could be:
- Sohan's son, or
- Sohan's brother's son (Sohan's nephew).
Step 3: Check which grandson it refers to
- If the grandson is Sohan's son, then:
- The girl is the wife of Sohan's son.
- So, the girl is Sohan's daughter-in-law.
- If the grandson is Sohan's nephew (brother's son), then:
- The girl is the wife of Sohan's nephew.
- So, the girl is related as nephew's wife (no direct relation to Sohan).
Step 4: Most likely interpretation
Usually, in such puzzles, the grandson refers to Sohan's son (direct lineage).
Final answer:
Sohan is the father-in-law of the girl.
Or simply, the girl is Sohan's daughter-in-law.
