    Question

    Neeta is teaching relations to her daughter. She says,

    "How is my mother's mother's daughter-in-law's daughter related to me?" What will be the correct relationship?
    A Maternal Aunt Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Mother Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Cousin Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Niece Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Neeta's mother's mother → Neeta's grandmother. Grandmother's daughter-in-law → Wife of grandmother's son (Neeta's uncle or Neeta's father). Daughter-in-law's daughter → The daughter of this woman, which means she is Neeta's sibling or cousin. Since the question does not specify whether the daughter-in-law is Neeta’s mother or her uncle’s wife, there are two possibilities: If the daughter-in-law is Neeta’s mother, then the daughter is Neeta herself (which is not relevant here). If the daughter-in-law is the wife of Neeta’s uncle, then the daughter is Neeta’s cousin. So, the correct answer is: (3) Cousin.
