* means B is the wife of D
- AF9M4N3K
- BF3M4N9K
- CF3M5K
- DF5K3M
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's decode option B ():
1. F is the wife of M (So, F is female and M is male).
2. M is the brother of N.
3. N is the sister of K.
Since M, N, and K are siblings (M is brother of N, N is sister of K), and F is the wife of M, F would be the sister-in-law of K, not the mother.
Let's decode option C ():
1. F is the wife of M (F is female, M is male).
2. M is the father of K.
Since M is the father of K and F is M's wife, F must be the mother of K. This perfectly matches the requirement.
