Correct Answer: c) Brother
Question from UPPSC Prelims CSAT 2025
Explanation:
• “My father’s wife” = my mother.
• “The daughter of my father’s wife” = my sister.
• “Two brothers of the daughter” = the sister’s two brothers = Deepak himself and his brother.
• “The younger of the two brothers” = the younger between Deepak and his brother, i.e., Deepak’s younger brother.
Hence, the boy playing football is Deepak’s brother.
