Explanation & Solution

Correct Option: 1, 2 and 3

Let's analyze the family members: A, B, C, D, E, F, G (7 members, 3 females). G is a widow and sister-in-law of D's father F. B and D are siblings, and A is daughter of B. C is a cousin of B. Let's deduce the relationships: F is D's father. Since B and D are siblings, F is also the father of B. G is the sister-in-law of F and is a widow, which means G is the wife of F's brother. There are 3 females in total: G is one female, A is another female. Since F is male, B and D's mother must be the third female, or E is the third female. Let's check the statements: 1. Wife of F (E is the wife of F and mother of B and D). 2. Grandmother of A (since A is daughter of B, and E is mother of B, E is the grandmother of A). 3. Aunt of C (since C is a cousin of B, C is the child of F's sibling, making E the aunt/mami/bua of C). All three statements 1, 2, and 3 are correct.
