Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option C

Wife

Solution :

The correct option is Wife.


To find the relationship between the woman and Rahul, let us break down the statement step-by-step from Rahul's perspective:


1. "My father's only son":
Rahul is talking about his father. Since Rahul is a man and his father has only one son ("only son"), that "only son" must be Rahul himself.


2. "She is the wife of my father's only son":
Substituting "my father's only son" with "Rahul", the statement becomes: "She is the wife of Rahul."


Therefore, the woman is Rahul's wife.
