Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation:

Step 1: T ÷ R means T is the son of R. So R is a parent of T.

Step 2: R + V means R is brother of V, so V is a sibling of R.

Step 3: V × S means V is sister of S, confirming that V is female.

Conclusion: V is the sister of T's parent, which makes V the aunt of T.

  • T is the son of R.

  • R is brother of V, and V is sister of S (so V is female).

  • Therefore, V is the sister of T's parent = aunt of T.
