M x N -> M is the mother of N.

N % S -> N is the wife of S.

and S + T -> is the father of T.

Hence, M is the maternal grandmother of T.

M(-).

N(-) <--------->S(+) (N is wife of S) i.e N%S.
l
l (S is father of T) i.e S+T.
l
T

Thus option A is right answer.

Hi Jyoti,

Here AXB means that A is the mother of B.

Hence in case of MXN, M is the mother of N.

Again A%B means A is the wife of B.

So in N%S N is the wife of S.

Again in A+B, A is the father of B.

So here S+T, S is the father of T.

So, Reversing T is the child of S and N (where S is the husband and N is wife). Again M is the mother of N. So M is the maternal grandmother of T.

Hope this helps.
