Question: How is Sulekha related to Nandini ?
Statements:
- Sulekha's husband is the only son of Nandini's mother.
- Sulekha's brother and Nandini's husband are cousins.
Answer: Option
Explanation:
From I, we conclude that Sulekha is the wife of Nandini's mother's only son i.e. Nandini's brother. Thus, Sulekha is Nandini's sister-in-law.
From II, we conclude that Sulekha is the cousin of Nandini's husband, which implies that Sulekha is Nandini's sister-in-law.
