Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow. A, B, C, D, E and F are members of a family. They are engineer, stenographer, doctor, draughtsman, lawyer and judge (not in order). A, the engineer is married to the lady stenographer. The judge is married to the lawyer. F, the draughtsman is the son of B and brother of E. C, the lawyer is the daughter-in-law of D. E is the unmarried doctor. D is the grandmother of F. There are two married couples in the family.
What is the profession of D ?
Judge
Stenographer
Doctor
Cannot be determined
Let's break this family puzzle down:
- A is the engineer, married to the lady stenographer.
- The judge is married to the lawyer.
- F is the draughtsman. F is son of B and brother of E.
- C is the lawyer and is D's daughter-in-law. So C is married to D’s son.
- E is an unmarried doctor.
- D is grandmother of F — so D is a woman, and not married to A (the engineer).
- Two married couples total.
Now, let's map them:
- D (grandmother), married to ?
- C (lawyer), married to D’s son (who is the judge).
- F is B’s son and E’s brother.
- E is unmarried doctor.
- So, B is D’s child; B is either D’s son (judge) or daughter (stenographer).
With all links, the diagram looks like:
- D (grandma)
- Married to (probably deceased, or not mentioned)
- Has children: B (the judge, male) and A (the engineer, male).
- B (judge, male), married to C (lawyer, female).
- F (draughtsman) and E (doctor) are B and C’s children.
- A (engineer) married to the lady stenographer, who must be D’s daughter-in-law.
But, it says A is married to lady stenographer—A and the lady stenographer are a couple, and the judge and lawyer are a separate couple (that’s B and C).
Therefore:
- D is grandmother but is not a couple to anyone named here.
- The jobs left: D is only left with stenographer or judge, but the lady stenographer is married to A, and D is not married to A.
D doesn’t fit any remaining job *except* for judge, as everyone else’s profession is accounted for.
So, here's the thing:
- D is the judge.
Correct Option:
- Option 1: Judge
And here's a summary of the professions:
- A: Engineer (married to lady stenographer, not D)
- B: Judge (male, married to lawyer C)
- C: Lawyer (female, married to judge B)
- D: Stenographer (grandmother, so not possible; already assigned)
- E: Doctor (unmarried)
- F: Draughtsman (son of B and brother to E)
So D must be judge, by process of elimination.
