Pointing to a man, a lady said "His mother is the only daughter of my mother". How is the lady related to the man?
Daughter
Sister
Mother
Aunt
None of the above
Mother
Whenever you see the phrase 'only daughter of my mother', it always refers to the speaker herself (if female).
Whenever you see the phrase 'only daughter of my mother', it always refers to the speaker herself (if female).
Analyze the inner phrase
The lady says, 'the only daughter of my mother'. Since the speaker is a lady, the only daughter of her mother must be the lady herself.
Substitute and solve
Substitute 'the lady herself' back into the original sentence: 'His (the man's) mother is the lady herself'.
Final Conclusion
Since the man's mother is the lady, the lady is the mother of the man.
A: Daughter is incorrect as the man is the child of the lady. B: Sister is incorrect because the man's mother is the speaker herself, not a sibling. D: Aunt is incorrect as the relationship is direct mother-son, not avuncular.
C is correct because the phrase 'only daughter of my mother' identifies the speaker as the mother of the man in question.
In pointing-based questions, always break the sentence into two parts at the verb or connector to solve linearly.
