In a certain code language,
‘A + B’ means ‘A is the father of B’;
‘A − B’ means ‘B is the sister of A’;
‘A × B’ means ‘A is the wife of B’ and
‘A ÷ B’ means ‘A is the mother of B’.
Based on the above information, how is T related to V if ‘R × S − T ÷ P + V’?
Correct Answer :
Father’s mother
Solution :
The correct answer is Father’s mother.
To determine how T is related to V based on the given expression R × S − T ÷ P + V, let us break down each part of the expression step-by-step according to the given code language:
1. R × S: 'A × B' means 'A is the wife of B'.
Thus, R is the wife of S, which implies S is the husband of R.
2. S − T: 'A − B' means 'B is the sister of A'.
Thus, T is the sister of S.
3. T ÷ P: 'A ÷ B' means 'A is the mother of B'.
Thus, T is the mother of P.
4. P + V: 'A + B' means 'A is the father of B'.
Thus, P is the father of V.
Now, let us trace the relation from V to T:
• P is the father of V.
• T is the mother of P (the father of V).
• Therefore, T is the father’s mother of V.
Hence, T is V’s Father’s mother.
