The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we need to analyze the relationships mentioned in the question. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Relationships**: - The man says to the lady, "Your mother's husband." - "Your mother's husband" refers to the lady's father. 2. **Determine the Lady's Father's Sister**: - The phrase continues with "your mother's husband's sister." - This means we are looking for the sister of the lady's father. 3. **Identify the Lady's Father's Sister**: - The sister of the lady's father is the lady's aunt. 4. **Understand the Man's Statement**: - The man states, "is my aunt." - This means that the lady's aunt is also the man's aunt. 5. **Conclusion from the Statement**: - If the lady's aunt is the same as the man's aunt, it implies that the lady's father and the man's parent (who is the sibling of the aunt) must be siblings. 6. **Determine the Relationship**: - Since both the lady and the man share the same aunt, it indicates that they are siblings (brother and sister). ### Final Answer: The lady is the sister of the man. ---
