Step-by-Step Explanation:


Let's analyze the relationships given in the problem step-by-step:


1. Harry and Grace: Harry is married to Grace. (They are the parents/grandparents generation).

2. Grace, Alan, and Becky: Alan is the only son of Grace, and Becky is Alan's sister. This means Alan and Becky are siblings, both children of Harry and Grace.

3. Alan and Emma: Emma is the wife of Alan.

4. Alan, Emma, and Fred: Fred is Emma's son (and thus Alan's son).

5. Becky and Chris: Chris is the husband of Becky.

6. Chris, Becky, and David: David is Chris's son (and since Chris is married to Becky, David is also Becky's son).


Determining the relation between David and Alan:

Alan and Becky are brother and sister (siblings).

David is the son of Becky (Alan's sister).

The son of one's sister is their Nephew.


Therefore, David is the nephew of Alan.
