Laura was going with a boy and is asked by a woman about the relationship between them. Laura replied, “My maternal uncle and the paternal uncle of his maternal uncle is the same”. How is Laura related with that boy?

  1. Mother and Son

  2. Aunt and Nephew

  3. Grandmother and Grandson

  4. Cannot be determined

Show answer & explanation

Answer: (B) Aunt and Nephew

Explanation

The uncle of the boy's maternal uncle is Laura's maternal uncle, so the boy's maternal uncle is Laura's brother (both are children of the sister of that uncle). The boy's mother is then Laura's sister, so Laura is the boy's aunt: Aunt and Nephew.
