Answers:

Direction (1-5)

H’s father is 2^nd to the right of H. H’s mother is immediate left of H. Two persons are sitting between H and E.

E is 2^nd to the left of G. D is son of B and neighbor of G.

A is married to G. G is mother of E. E is sister of H. So A is H’ father and G is H’s mother then case 1 gets rejected.

Three persons are sitting between A and A’s brother. D is son of B and neighbor of G. It means D is immediate left of G and D is A’s brother.

B is a male and B is A’s and D’ father. As E is female and A is male so B cannot sit with A so B will be immediate left of E. H is grandson of F so F is mother of A and D and at least one person is sitting between B and B’s daughter so B’s daughter must be C.

Here is the final arrangement:

 

1. Answer: A

A is son of B.

Hence, option A.

 

2. Answer: D

E is 3^rd to the left of H.

Hence, option D.

 

3. Answer: A

D is brother of A.

Hence, option A.

 

4. Answer: E

Hence, option E.

 

5. Answer: B

A is father of H and B is 2^nd to the right of A.

Hence, option B.
