Solutions:
1) Answer (A)
J ÷ P % H ? T % L
=> T is the mother of L and J is the brother of H
Now, for J to be brother of T, H must be either sister or brother of T.
=> ‘x’ is the correct symbol here.
2) Answer (D)
In option B, D + M is given, wich implies that D is the father of M.
Now, if M is a girl, then it can be established that M is the daughter of M.
M x T => M is a sister of T => M is a girl
Hence option B is correct.
3) Answer (B)
I + T % J × L ÷ K
L ÷ K => L is the son of K
J × L ÷ K => J is the daughter of K
T % J × L ÷ K => T is the wife of K
I + T % J × L ÷ K => I is the father-in-law of K
Hence B is the correct answer
4) Answer (D)
Given that Y is not a son of X.
In option A and B, Y ÷ X is given, which is wrong. Hence A and B are eliminated.
In option C, X + L x T x Y is given => X is father of Y, which is wrong. Hence C is eliminated.
Similarly E can also be eliminated.
Hence, D is the answer
5) Answer (D)
T × P ? Q
Here, T is the sister of P. So for T to be sister-in-law of Q, P must be Q’s wife. Hence the correct symbol is ‘$’.
