If I say P - M + Q, is it right?
Because P - M means P is the brother of M and M + Q means M is the mother of Q.
So, p is the maternal uncle of Q.
Because P - M means P is the brother of M and M + Q means M is the mother of Q.
So, p is the maternal uncle of Q.

B) P + S x N - Q.
P + S -> P is the mother of S. It clearly implies P is a female. In the given question, P has to be the maternal uncle(-male), so we can conclude B is wrong option. :)

P - M + N * Q. According to above relationships between A and B given in the question.
Just follow. P - M = P is the brother of M, M + N = M is the mother of N, N * Q = N is the sister of Q.
So, N and Q are two sisters. And M is the mother of two sisters. And P is the brother of M. So now we got P is the uncle of Q.
