Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option D

Mother’s mother

Solution :

The correct option is Mother’s mother.


To determine how S is related to P in the given expression ‘S - K ÷ T × V + P’, let us decode the expression step-by-step from left to right based on the provided code language definitions:


1. S - K: ‘A - B’ means ‘A is the wife of B’.
Therefore, S is the wife of K. This implies S is female and K is male (husband of S).


2. K ÷ T: ‘A ÷ B’ means ‘A is the father of B’.
Therefore, K is the father of T. Since S is K's wife, S is the mother of T.


3. T × V: ‘A × B’ means ‘A is the sister of B’.
Therefore, T is the sister of V. Since T and V are siblings, S is also the mother of V.


4. V + P: ‘A + B’ means ‘A is the mother of B’.
Therefore, V is the mother of P.


Conclusion:
V is the mother of P, and S is the mother of V.
Thus, S is the mother of P's mother, which means S is P’s Mother’s mother.
