In a certain code language,
A # B means ‘A is the daughter of B’,
A % B means ‘A is the father of B’,
A - B means ‘A is the son of B’,
A @ B means ‘A is the sister of B’.
Based on the above, how is S related to U if ‘S - M @ H # Y % U’?
Brother's son
Sister's son
Father
Brother
Sister's son
Quick Trick: Decode right-to-left to quickly establish generation and gender: Y % U (Y is father of U) -> H # Y (H is daughter of Y, so H is sister of U) -> M @ H (M is sister of H) -> S - M (S is son of M). Thus S is the son of M, who is the sist...
Decode right-to-left to quickly establish generation and gender: Y % U (Y is father of U) -> H # Y (H is daughter of Y, so H is sister of U) -> M @ H (M is sister of H) -> S - M (S is son of M). Thus S is the son of M, who is the sister/sibling of U, making S the sister's son of U.
Step 1: Decode relationship symbols
Given code definitions:
% means 'father of'
Step 2: Trace individual relationships from left to right
Step 3: Combine relationships to determine U and M's connection to S
Since Y is the father of U, and H is the daughter of Y, H and U are siblings. Since M is the sister of H, M, H, and U are all siblings (children of Y). Thus, M is U's sister. Since S is the son of M, S is the son of U's sister, which means S is U's sister's son.
A: Incorrect because S is the son of M, who is U's sister (not brother). C: Incorrect because Y is the father generation, not S. D: Incorrect because S belongs to the next generation (Gen 3 relative to U in Gen 2).
B is correct because M, H, and U are siblings, making M the sister of U; since S is the son of M, S is U's sister's son.
In coded blood relation expressions, decode from the parent/older generation relationship or right-to-left to establish family structure before determining the specific gender and relation.
