How is the woman related to Ritika?
Cousin of Ritika
Aunt of Ritika
Sister of Ritika
Mother of Ritika
Mother of Ritika
Break the phrase 'my brother's father' first: it is simply 'my father'. Therefore, the woman is the wife of Ritika's father, who is her mother.
Break the phrase 'my brother's father' first: it is simply 'my father'. Therefore, the woman is the wife of Ritika's father, who is her mother.
Analyze the subject
Start from the phrase 'my brother's father'. Since Ritika has a brother, their father is the same person.
Simplify the relationship
Substitute 'my brother's father' with 'my father'. The sentence now reads: She is the wife of my father.
Final Conclusion
The wife of one's father is the mother. Thus, the woman is Ritika's mother.
A: A cousin is a child of one's aunt or uncle, which contradicts the 'wife of father' relationship. B: An aunt is the sister of one's father or mother, not the wife of one's father. C: A sister is a female sibling, not the mother figure resulting from the wife of one's father.
D is correct because the wife of Ritika's father is definitively her mother.
In blood relation problems, always work backwards from the speaker ('my') to simplify the chain of relationships into a single noun.
