Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Answer: Mother
Explanation:
Let the woman be W and Abhijit’s brother be B. The daughter of B is D.
The statement says: W’s granddaughter = D, and D is the daughter of B.
Since D is B’s daughter, D is Abhijit’s niece.
W is a grandparent of Abhijit’s niece through B, so W must be a parent of B (one of B’s parents). Because B and Abhijit are brothers, that same parent is also a parent of Abhijit.
Therefore, W is Abhijit’s mother.
