Option B is correct and D is incorrect.

It's a simple theory that we need gender of only S not of Q gender.

Q & P is brother and sister (or sisters) and if P is son of S that means Q is son/ daughter of S too.

That also means S is the father of Q.

Option D is correct. Because we can say Q is the son of S. We cannot determine S is male or female. So option D is correct.

When q@p means q is sister of p but p is son of s (p%s).

So s is father of q and p both.

Excellent! You're perfectly correct.

@Trupti Sharma,

Q@S implies that Q is the sister of S,
S%P says that S is the son of P, gender of P is not specified.

Hence it can't be the correct option.
S$P@Q and P@/$/%S%Q are the answer for the above relation as per my opinion.

In answer we want that 'S' must be a male so A is neglected and Gender of parent is not specified so it can't be option 'B' and for option 'C', S can't be the father as it is pointing that Sis female. Hence proved that D is the answer.

Q @ P % S

Q @ P → Q is the sister of P.
P % S → P is the son of S.

So:

Q is P’s sister.
P is the son of S → S is the father of P.
Since Q is P’s sister, both are children of S.

So, S is the father of Q.
This matches the condition!

Option B is correct.

@Sundar.
Option D is correct only if " D: cannot be determined". None of these means any of the above cannot be right. But there is a chance of B getting right. So, the correct option B.

Actually potion 'B' is correct. Because in question itself they told us that 'S' IS MALE ("S is father of "Q"). So they have mentioned it.

"Q" is sister of "P".
"P" is son of "S".
So 'S' is father of 'Q'.

Actually, D is the right one, due to pure elimination. According to the question, dollar sign separates father and son and nowhere we see s$q i.e. S is the father of Q. Hence, D is the correct one.

Answer B is the correct one.

Q@P%S.

Here;

Q @ P means Q is the sister of P.
P % S means P is the son of S.
This means P and Q are siblings and S is the father of both.

Option B is answer not D.

Because,

Q is sister of P and P is son of S i.e. S is father of P.

As Q is sister of P hence S is father of Q also.

So answer is option B.
