  • 'P + Q' means 'P is the mother of Q';
  • 'P - Q' means 'P is the brother of Q';
  • 'P * Q' means 'P is the sister of Q'.

Given A+B#C−DA + B \# C - D, then A is D's

  1. A.

    Sister

  2. B.

    Grandson

  3. C.

    Mother

  4. D.

    Grandmother

Answer

D

Explanation

  • A+B  ⟹  AA + B \implies A is the mother of BB.
  • B#C  ⟹  BB \# C \implies B is the father of CC.
  • C−D  ⟹  CC - D \implies C is the brother of DD.

Since BB is the father of CC and DD, and AA is the mother of BB, AA is the grandmother of DD.
