@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.

@All

Here the gender of S cannot be determined from option B. In the question, it is clear that S is the father. So optíon D is correct.

Hi Afroz, You are wrong. Correct answer is 'None of these'.

Reason:

Option B: Q (sister of) P (son of) S

P is son of S. Here the gender of 'S' is not given. 'S' might be Father or Mother.

So, we cannot say S is father of P.

Thats why the answer is 'option D'.

Q is the sister of P and P is the son of S which means P (male) and Q (female) are siblings. So S is the father of P and Q both.

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 is option D because we can't decide gender s from remaining options. So we will go with option D.

Option B is correct.

Why not option "B" is correct?

Read the question carefully "S is the FATHER of Q". So answer is "B".

Answer is B because in a question its clearly given that S is father of Q it means S = male.
