Pointing to a lady in the photograph, Sujata said, "Her son's father is the son-in-law of my mother." How is Sujata related to the lady?

Aunt

Sister

Mother

Cousin

✅ Correct Option: 2

Let the lady in the photograph be X.

According to Sujata: "Her son's father is the son-in-law of my mother."

Breaking down "Her son's father":

This refers to the lady X's husband

Breaking down "son-in-law of my mother":

A son-in-law is a man married to someone's daughter
Sujata's mother's son-in-law is the man married to Sujata's mother's daughter

Combining both parts:

Lady X's husband = Sujata's mother's son-in-law

This means lady X's husband is married to a daughter of Sujata's mother.

Since lady X is married to this man (who is Sujata's mother's son-in-law), lady X must be a daughter of Sujata's mother.

If lady X is a daughter of Sujata's mother, and Sujata is also a daughter of Sujata's mother, then lady X and Sujata are daughters of the same mother.

Since Sujata is referring to "the lady" as a different person, the lady must be Sujata's sister.

Therefore, Sujata is the lady's Sister.

The correct answer is Option 2: Sister.
