Directions (67-69): Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below:

J is the wife of K. K is the son of O. N is the aunt of L and K’s sibling. P is the granddaughter of M. Q is married to P. No single parent in the family. Q is the brother-in-law of L. Gender of M is same as P but different as L.

How many females in the family?

Based on the provided information, let us reconstruct the family tree step-by-step to determine the gender of each family member and find the total number of females.

Step 1: Analyze the relationship between J, K, O, and N
1. "J is the wife of K": This means J is female and K is male. They are a married couple.
2. "K is the son of O": This indicates K is the child of O.
3. "N is the aunt of L and K’s sibling": Since N is K's sibling and an aunt, N must be female. Since N is the aunt of L, L must be the child of K (and J).

Step 2: Analyze the relationship between L, P, Q, and M
1. "Q is married to P" and "Q is the brother-in-law of L": Since Q is married to P and is L's brother-in-law, P must be the sister of L. Thus, L and P are siblings, both being the children of K and J.
2. "P is the granddaughter of M": Since L and P are the children of K, their grandparents are O and M.
3. "No single parent in the family": Since K and J are a married parent couple, the grandparents O and M must also be married to each other.

Step 3: Determine the genders of the remaining members
1. P is a granddaughter, which means P is female.
2. "Gender of M is same as P": Since P is female, M is female (grandmother).
3. Since O is married to M, and M is female, O is male (grandfather).
4. "Gender of L is different from M": Since M is female, L is male.
5. Since Q is married to P (female), Q is male.

Step 4: Count the total number of females in the family
Let's list all the members and their genders:
• M: Female
• O: Male
• K: Male
• J: Female
• N: Female
• L: Male
• P: Female
• Q: Male

The female members of the family are M, J, N, and P. Thus, there are Four females in the family.
