If the data in statement II and III are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I are not required to answer the question.

Solution :

Correct Answer: If the data in statement II and III are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I are not required to answer the question.

To determine how N is related to J, let us analyze the statements to see which combination provides sufficient information.

Step 1: Analyze Statement II and Statement III together
From Statement II:
- B is the only son of J.
- L has no siblings.
- K is the nephew of R and the brother-in-law of V.

From Statement III:
- R is the only sibling of B. Since B is the only son of J, R must be female (the daughter of J). Thus, J has two children: B (male) and R (female).
- L is the sister-in-law of R. Since L has no siblings (from Statement II), L cannot be the sister of R's husband. Therefore, L must be the wife of R's brother. Since R's only sibling/brother is B, L is married to B.
- C is the brother-in-law of B. Since R is B's sister, C must be married to R.
- N is the niece of R. Since R's sibling is B, and B is married to L, N must be the daughter of B and L.

Step 2: Establish the relationship between N and J
- J is the parent of B.
- B is the father of N.
- Since N is female (niece of R), N is the granddaughter of J.
Therefore, the relationship of N to J can be uniquely determined as "granddaughter" using only Statements II and III. Statement I is not required.
