Study the following details carefully and answer the question that follows:

There are eight members in a family with an equal number of males and females. W is the maternal grandmother of K. C is the son-in-law of H. K is the male child of C. S is the sibling of D. D is the sister-in-law of B. H is the father-in-law of B. G is the child of B.

What is the total number of generations in this family?

The correct answer is 3.

To determine the total number of generations in this family, let us analyze the relationships step-by-step based on the given information:

1. We are given that W is the maternal grandmother of K and K is the male child of C.
This immediately establishes three generations:
- Generation 1 (Oldest): W (Grandmother)
- Generation 2 (Middle): C and K's mother (Parents)
- Generation 3 (Youngest): K (Child)

2. We are given that C is the son-in-law of H and H is the father-in-law of B.
Since W is the maternal grandmother of K, and C is K's father, C's wife is W's daughter. Therefore, H is W's husband (Generation 1).

3. D is the sister-in-law of B, S is the sibling of D, and G is the child of B.
Since G is the child of B, G belongs to the youngest generation (Generation 3), while B, D, and S belong to Generation 2.

Combining all the relations, the family structure across generations is as follows:

Generation 1: H and W (Grandparents)
Generation 2: C, B, D, S (Parents/Aunts/Uncles)
Generation 3: K and G (Grandchildren)

Thus, there are a total of 3 generations in this family.
