To determine the relationship between M and N, we need to analyze the given statements and apply the rules of the relationships.
Given:
- A B means A is the brother of B
- A x B means A is the son of B
- A % B means B is the daughter of A
We need to find the expression that represents M being the maternal uncle of N. Maternal uncle means the brother of one's mother.
Analysis:
1. Statement a) M O x N: This statement states that M is the son of O, but it doesn't provide any information about the relationship between M and N. So, it is not the correct answer.
2. Statement b) M % O x N: This statement states that O is the daughter of M and that N is the son of O. However, it doesn't provide any information about the relationship between M and N. So, it is also not the correct answer.
3. Statement c) M O % N: This statement states that O is the daughter of M and that N is the daughter of O. It doesn't indicate any brother-sister or uncle-nephew relationship. So, it is not the correct answer.
Conclusion:
None of the given options a), b), or c) provide the information needed to determine that M is the maternal uncle of N. Therefore, the correct answer is option d) None of these.
Explanation:
To find the maternal uncle of N, we need a relationship that indicates M is the brother of N's mother. However, none of the given options provide this information. Therefore, none of the options can be considered as the correct answer.
