Question

    Pointing to a photograph of a boy, Nita said, "He is the son of the only daughter of my mother". How is Nita related to the boy?

    A Sister Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Niece Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Mother Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Aunt Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    "Nita said, 'He is the son of the only daughter of my mother.'" Let's analyze this step by step: "Only daughter of my mother" refers to Nita herself because every person has only one mother, and if Nita is referring to the only daughter of her mother, it must be Nita herself. So, the boy is the son of Nita. Therefore, Nita is the boy's mother.
