Pointing to a girl on the stage, Shivali said, "She is the sister of the son of my husband's wife." How is the girl on the stage related to Shivali?
Answer: A
The woman's husband's wife is Shivali herself, so the son of her husband's wife is Shivali's own son. The girl on the stage is the sister of that son, which makes her Shivali's daughter. The girl cannot be Shivali's sister, mother or wife, since a sister of Shivali's son is a child of the same parents and so is a child of Shivali. This is the standard way of solving such puzzles: replace the roundabout phrase by the simple relation and then take the next step. The answer is Daughter, option (A).
