Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation:

B is the mother of Q, and P is the son of Q. Therefore, B is the grandmother of P.

A and B are sisters, so A is the great-aunt of P (the sister of P's grandmother). Hence, A is not the grandmother of P.

Only Q is mentioned as B's child and only P as Q's child, so there is no basis to conclude that B has two grandsons.

A's son is C and B's child is Q. Children of siblings are cousins, so C and Q are cousins. This is the correct relation.
