C. Wife
D. Daughter
A. Mother
B. Sister
C. Wife
D. Daughter
Best answer
Answer: C. Wife
Answer: (C) Wife
H $ J: H is the father of J. J & K: J is the sister of K, so H is K’s father too.
K # M: K is the daughter of M. K’s father is H, so M is K’s other parent, the mother.
As usual in these questions, the mother of H’s children is taken to be H’s wife.
