Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's decode the given expression step-by-step from left to right:S ÷ Q S is the daughter of Q.Q + M Q is the father of M. (So Q is male, and S and M are siblings).M × P M is the brother of P. (So S, M, P are siblings, all children of Q).P − K P is the wife of K. (So P is female, married to K, who is male).Since P is the daughter of Q, and P is married to K, Q is the father of K's wife.Therefore, Q is the Father-in-law of K.
