Q1Umang said to Uma, "You are the wife of the grandson of my mother." Who is Umang to Uma?

A Father
B Husband
C Father-in-law
D Grandfather
Explanation

Start from Umang's mother. Her grandson, in this setting, is Umang's son. Uma is said to be the wife of that grandson, so Uma is the wife of Umang's son. That makes Uma Umang's daughter-in-law, and Umang is her father-in-law. Father would mean a direct parent-child relation with Uma, husband would mean Uma is married to Umang himself, and grandfather would place Umang one generation higher than the father-in-law relation. These do not match the given relation.

Q2The mother of Shivani's sister Ritu is Kavita. The mother of Kavita's sister Neha is Maya. How is Neha related to Ritu?

A Mother
B Paternal aunt
C Maternal aunt
D Cousin
Explanation

Ritu is Shivani's sister, and Ritu's mother is Kavita. So Kavita is Ritu's mother. Neha is described as Kavita's sister. A mother's sister is a maternal aunt, so Neha is Ritu's maternal aunt. Neha cannot be Ritu's mother because Kavita already has that relationship. She is not a paternal aunt because that would require being the father's sister, which is not stated. She is also not a cousin, because she belongs to the mother's generation as Kavita's sister.

Q3In a family of seven people, a Scientist is married to a Teacher and has three sons: one Engineer, one Doctor and one Actor. The Actor's wife is a Dancer and the aunt of Sarita. Sarita, the daughter of the Engineer, learns Science with her brother Mahesh. How is the Doctor related to Mahesh?

A Son
B Brother
C Grandfather
D Paternal uncle
Explanation

The Scientist and the Teacher are the parents of three sons: the Engineer, the Doctor and the Actor. Sarita is the Engineer's daughter, and Mahesh is Sarita's brother, so Mahesh is also the Engineer's child. The Doctor is another son of the Scientist and Teacher, hence he is the brother of Mahesh's father. Therefore the Doctor is Mahesh's paternal uncle. He cannot be Mahesh's son or brother because he belongs to the father's generation. Grandfather refers to the Scientist, not to the Doctor.

Q4C is the mother of A and B. If D is the husband of B, then what is C's relation to D?

A Sister
B Aunt
C Mother
D Mother-in-law
Explanation

C is given as the mother of B. D is the husband of B, so D is married to C's child. Therefore, from D's point of view, C is his mother-in-law. Sister would mean C and D share parents, which is not stated. Aunt would require C to be a sibling of one of D's parents, which is also absent. Mother would mean C directly gave birth to D, but the statement only makes C the mother of A and B.

Q5Sushil is the son-in-law of Bhumi's maternal grandmother, Sangita. Ravi is the only son-in-law of Bhumi's mother. How is Ravi related to Sangita?

A Grandson
B Uncle
C Husband of Granddaughter
D Brother-in-law
Explanation

Sangita is Bhumi's maternal grandmother, so Bhumi is Sangita's granddaughter. Ravi is described as the only son-in-law of Bhumi's mother, which means Ravi is married to the daughter of Bhumi's mother. In the intended relation chain, that daughter is Bhumi; therefore Ravi is Bhumi's husband. Since Bhumi is Sangita's granddaughter, Ravi becomes the husband of Sangita's granddaughter. He is not Sangita's grandson, uncle or brother-in-law, because none of those relations follows from the given marriage link.
