A photographer is arranging a family for a portrait and asks a woman named Maya about her relationship to a boy named Leo. Maya replies, "His paternal grandfather is the father of my only brother." Based on this statement, what is Maya's relationship to Leo?
Cevap: Paternal aunt / Aunt / paternal aunt / aunt
Cevap
Paternal aunt
Maya states that Leo's paternal grandfather is the father of her only brother. The father of Maya's brother is Maya's own father. This means Leo's paternal grandfather is Maya's father. Therefore, Leo's father must be the son of Maya's father. Since Maya has only one brother, that brother is Leo's father. Because Maya is a woman and the sister of Leo's father, she is Leo's paternal aunt.
