Mapping the P-W-R generation
P and W are siblings. W is the father of R. This makes R the niece/nephew of P. Specifically, R is the daughter/son of P's brother W.
Mapping the R-T-J generation
J is the son of R. T is the father of J. Since R is the parent of J and T is the father of J, T and R must be partners (Husband and Wife).
Determining the relationship
T is the husband of R. R is the daughter/son of W. Since W is the brother of P, R is the brother's child (niece/nephew) of P. Therefore, T is the husband of P's brother's child (niece).
A: Daughter's son is incorrect as T is in the same generation as R, not the grandchild generation. B: Brother's daughter's son is incorrect as T is the husband of the daughter, not the son. C: Daughter's husband is incorrect because T is the husband of P's brother's daughter, not P's own daughter.
D is correct because T is the husband of R, and R is the daughter of W, who is the brother of P; thus T is P's brother's daughter's husband.
