His is used for boys. So X is male.

It is clearly mentioned as "HIS" friend. Hence X is a male.

Even if x is a female and y is a male, x will call y 'his friend' only. Answer can't be decided, its wrong.

We don't have any connection with what the gender of Y. Since X said to his friend Y, it is clear that X is Male. "She is the only daughter of the father of my mother".

'The father of my mother' means grandfather : It implies 'only daughter of my grandfather' which means 'my-mother'.

So it is clear, since X is male and is pointing to his mother, therefore X is the son which is the answer.

Hope this clears all doubts.
