If A + B means A is the brother of B; A* B means A is the sister of B; A # B means A is the daughter of B and A-B means A is the wife of B, then in the expression U # C- D + H+ T, how is H related to U?
Correct Answer :
Uncle
Solution :
The correct option/answer is Uncle.
To determine how H is related to U, we can break down the given expression, U # C - D + H + T, step-by-step from left to right based on the defined relationships:
1. U # C: The symbol '#' means the first person is the daughter of the second. Therefore, U is the daughter of C.
2. C - D: The symbol '-' means the first person is the wife of the second. Therefore, C is the wife of D. This implies that D is the husband of C, and together they are the parents of U (C is the mother, and D is the father).
3. D + H: The symbol '+' means the first person is the brother of the second. Therefore, D is the brother of H.
4. H + T: The symbol '+' means the first person is the brother of the second. Therefore, H is the brother of T. Since H is a brother, we know that H is male.
Now, let's trace the relationship between H and U:
- U's father is D.
- D's brother is H.
- Since H is the brother of U's father (D), H is the paternal uncle of U.
Thus, H is the Uncle of U.
