SSC CGL 2025 PYQ — Question 78

SSC CGL - 25 Sep 2025 - Shift 3 • Reasoning • Q78

Pointing to a photograph, Rohan said, 'He is the only son of my father's only daughter.' How is the person in the photograph related to Rohan?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

 

Answer: Nephew

Quick breakdown:

'My father's only daughter' = Rohan's sister (since Rohan's father has only one daughter, and that must be Rohan's own sister).

'Her only son' = Rohan's sister's son = Rohan's nephew.

Exam-speed trick for these relation puzzles: Always resolve the sentence from the innermost relation outward:

  1. Father's daughter → sister
  2. Sister's son → nephew
