@Aall.

It said the only son but it doesn't say only child there is a difference. So the answer is data inadequate.

Lata grandfather's only son her father. Question is he is the son of the only son of my grandfather. "He is the son" denotes Lata's father's son. So Lata is a brother of photographer.

Data is inadequate, as his father might be the only son, but he may have a sister. It's not like it's written that he is the only child.

Answer. Is brother because we have started from "my" because latha is saying it means latha is represents to my.

And now statement is latha having grandfather and now to his grandfather one son having to him a son and latha it means both are brother and sisters.

Yes, we cannot determine, because there it is not mentioned that Latha is the grandfather's daughters daughter or son's daughter.

Here they have mentioned the only son but that doesn't mean Lata's grandfather cannot be having a daughter and one son.

Here there are two possibilities one is;

She may be the daughter of that only son of her grandfather or Her grandfather could have had one son and another daughter.

The question mentioned here is Lata's grandfather. The grandfather can be Lata's Maternal Grandfather or Paternal Grandfather. If the grandfather is paternal grandfather, then the man in the photo is a brother to Lata. If the grandfather is a maternal grandfather, then the boy is a cousin to Lata.
