Solution
Decoding the expression: K - S ÷ J × B + C - Q
Using the given operators:
- K - S: K is wife of S
- S ÷ J: S is father of J
- J × B: J is husband of B
- B + C: B is daughter of C
- C - Q: C is wife of Q
The family relationships:
S (male) and K (female) are married, with K as the wife.
S is the father of J, making J their son.
J (male) and B (female) are married, with J as the husband.
C is the mother of B (since B is daughter of C).
Q (male) and C (female) are married, making Q the father of B.
Family structure:
- First couple: S and K (parents of J)
- Second couple: Q and C (parents of B)
- Third couple: J and B (married to each other)
Checking each statement:
(A) K is the father-in-law of B.
K is the wife of S and mother of J. Since J is married to B, K is the mother-in-law of B, not father-in-law.
(A) is FALSE.
(B) J is the son-in-law of Q.
Q is the husband of C, and C is the mother of B, making Q the father of B. Since J is married to B, J is the son-in-law of Q.
(B) is TRUE.
(C) S is the father of B.
S is the father of J, not B. S is the father-in-law of B through J's marriage.
(C) is FALSE.
(D) B is the daughter of C.
This is directly stated in the expression B + C.
(D) is TRUE.
Statements (B) and (D) only are correct.
The answer is Option 2.
