How many sons does X have ?

Statements:

1. Q and U are brothers of T.

2. R is sister of P and U.

3. R and T are daughters of X.

  • A.Only 1 and 2
  • B.Only 2 and 3
  • C.All 1, 2 and 3
  • D.1, 2 and 3 together are not sufficient

Answer: D

Correct answer: 1, 2 and 3 together are not sufficient

The three statements together establish that R and T are X’s daughters and that Q, U and P are siblings of theirs - but the sex of P is never given, and nothing rules out further children not mentioned at all. The number of sons is therefore two or three, and cannot be settled even with all three statements.
