    Solution

    To determine how P is related to C, we need to analyze the given statements: I: H is the only brother of S and P. • This tells us about the sibling relationship involving H, S, and P but nothing about C. II: P is the wife of L, who is the son-in-law of D. • This tells us P is married to L, and L is D's son-in-law, but again, there's no direct link to C. III: D is the mother of S and T is the son-in-law of C. • This tells us about D's children and that T is C's son-in-law, but we still don't have a clear path to P's relationship to C. Combining all three statements: • From II and III, we know that L is D's son-in-law, and D is S's mother. T is also a son-in-law to C but there's no mention of L being related to C directly. • The missing link here is the direct relationship between D and C, as well as how P, being the wife of L (D's son-in-law), relates specifically to C. We're looking for a connection that would directly tie P's relationship to C, but even combining all the information: • P is L's wife. • L is D's son-in-law, making him either S or T's brother/brother-in-law, depending on whether D has another daughter or not (which is not specified). • D is the mother of S and, by extension, related to H and P. • T is C's son-in-law, which introduces another family branch but does not clarify P's relation to C without knowing C's relation to D. Given the information provided, even when combining all three statements, we can infer some family relationships but not explicitly how P is related to C. The statements describe relationships within the family but do not provide a direct link or enough context to definitively answer how P is related to C without assuming or inferring additional relationships not directly stated. Therefore, the correct answer is: 1. Data in statements I, II and III together are not sufficient to answer the question.
