Question 1 of 5
1. Question
In which car three members are travelling?
Correct
R and S are granddaughters. So, both belong to third generation and V is their grandmother. Since P has a daughter, so P is the wife in the second generation couple. Now, Q and T both are males and they travel in car Y. But each car should have at least one female. Now, 18 T’s son. Let T belong to second generation. Then, T 18 PS husband and Q is the brother of R and S. Thus, W is the husband of V. So, the third member with Q and T in car Y, who must be female, cannot be P (who travels in car Z), V (who travels in car X), S (who travels in car X) or (who travels with mother P in car Z). So, it must be w. But W is a male. This is a contradiction. So, T belongs to first and Q to second generation. So, T is the husband of V, Q is the son of T and V, and husband of P. W is female and hence daughter of Q and P. In this case, Q and T may have W or R with them in car Y. Since R doesn’t travel with her grandfather (who is T), so Q and T travel with W in car Y. Thus, Q, T, W travel in car Y; P and R travel in car Z while V and S travel in car X.
Ans: b
Q, T and W travel in car Y.

So, it must be w. But W is a male. This is a contradiction. So, T belongs to first and Q to second generation. So, T is the husband of V, Q is the son of T and V, and husband of P. W is female and hence daughter of Q and P. In this case, Q and T may have W or R with them in car Y. Since R doesn’t travel with her grandfather (who is T), so Q and T travel with W in car Y. Thus, Q, T, W travel in car Y; P and R travel in car Z while V and S travel in car X.
Ans: b
Q, T and W travel in car Y.
