Correct Answer :

Option A

Sister-in-law

Solution :

Correct Answer: Sister-in-law

To determine how Z is related to V, we can break down the family relationships step-by-step using the given clues:

Step 1: Determine Genders
• Q is female (given).
• Q and B are of the same gender, so B is also female.
• P is the only brother of Q, so P is male.

Step 2: Identify Children and Married Couples
• "B has exactly two children, who are of opposite genders." Since P is male and Q is female, P and Q are the two children of B.
• "V is the son-in-law of R." This means V is married to R's daughter. Since Q is the female child in this generation, Q is married to V (making V the son-in-law of R and B).

Step 3: Establish Relation between P and V
• V is married to Q.
• P is the brother of Q.
• Therefore, P is the brother-in-law of V (husband's/wife's brother).

Step 4: Find the Relation of Z to V
• Z is given as the spouse of P. Since P is male, Z is P's wife.
• Since P is the brother-in-law of V, P's wife (Z) is the Sister-in-law of V.

Hence, Z is related to V as his Sister-in-law.
