Blood Relations Questions with Solutions
Blood relation questions describe family relationships and ask you to work out how two people are related. This topic covers direct statements ("A is the brother of B"), puzzle-style family descriptions, pointing-to-a-photograph questions, and coded relations where symbols stand for relationships (for example, A + B means A is the father of B). The most reliable method is to draw a family tree. Use a square for males, a circle for females, horizontal lines for the same generation and vertical lines for parent and child. Never assume a person's gender from their name, and only use what the question states. Drawing the tree step by step prevents most errors, especially in questions involving three or more generations. Practise the blood relation questions below. Each solution includes a family tree diagram.
