ASon

BNephew

CNiece

DCannot be determined

Answer:

D. Cannot be determined

Read Explanation:

From the information:

  • P's brother is Q.

  • Q is the father of R.

  • R is the sister of S.

We can conclude that S is also Q's child, so S is P's brother's child.

However, S's gender is not given:

  • If S is male, S is P's nephew.

  • If S is female, S is P's niece.

Since the exact relationship depends on S's gender, it cannot be determined uniquely.

Answer: Cannot be determined.
