If A is the brother of B; B is the sister of C; and C is the father of D, how D is related to A?
Brother
Sister
Nephew
Cannot be determined
Answer: Option
Explanation:

If D is Male, the answer is Nephew.

If D is Female, the answer is Niece.

As the sex of D is not known, hence, the relation between D and A cannot be determined.

Note: Niece - A daughter of one's brother or sister, or of one's brother-in-law or sister-in-law. Nephew - A son of one's brother or sister, or of one's brother-in-law or sister-in-law.

@Lakhveer Singh.
Here A, B &C are siblings.
And in problem, clearly given that C is the father of D. &D is either male or female which is not confirm.
So we can not determine its gender.
Therefore option[D] is the right answer.

A+..........B-............C+ (brother and sister) ......D+/- (son or daughter).

So, it sex of D can't be determined.

(C) is partially correct not fully because you do not know D is MALE or FEMALE(it may be nephew or niece).

So you should go for option (D).
