If A + B means A is the brother of B, A * B means A is the sister of B, A # B means A is the daughter of B and A - B means A is the wife of B, then in the expression U # C - D + H + T, how is H related to U?

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

Decoding the symbols:

  • ++ means brother of
  • ∗* means sister of
  • #\# means daughter of
  • −- means wife of

Breaking down the expression U#C−D+H+TU \# C - D + H + T:

U#CU \# C means U is the daughter of C

C−DC - D means C is the wife of D

D+HD + H means D is the brother of H

H+TH + T means H is the brother of T


Establishing relationships:

Since U is the daughter of C, and C is the wife of D, this means D is the father of U.

Since D is the brother of H, and D is U's father, H is the brother of U's father.


The brother of one's father is one's uncle.

Therefore, H is the uncle of U.

The answer is Option 2: Uncle.
