How is M related to N?

Statements:

1. P, who has only two kids, M and N, is the mother-in-law of Q, who is sister-in-law of N.

2. R, the sister-in-law of M, is the daughter-in-law of S, who has only two kids, M and N.

  • A.1 alone is sufficient while 2 alone is not sufficient
  • B.2 alone is sufficient while 1 alone is not sufficient
  • C.Either 1 or 2 is sufficient
  • D.Neither 1 or 2 is sufficient

Answer: A

From 1, we conclude that P is the mother of M and N, while Q is the daughter-in-law of P and sister-in-law of N. Thus, Q is M's wife and hence, M is N's brother.

From 2, we conclude that M and N are the children of S. Also, R is the daughter-in-law of S and sister-in-law of M. So, R is N's wife and thus, N is M's brother. Hence, M is either brother or sister of N.
