Choose the correct answer:
A.
Teacher
B.
Lawyer
C.
Doctor
D.
Cannot be determined
(Correct Answer)
Correct Answer:
Cannot be determined
Explanation
Solving
Family Members: Ajay is the son of Mukesh.
Mukesh's Parent: The "Lawyer" is the head of the family and the parent of Mukesh.
Gender Ambiguity: The text states "The lawyer is the head of the family and has two sons." It also mentions "Mrs. Reena and her mother-in-law both are lawyers."
The Conflict: While there is a Lawyer who is the head, the prompt does not explicitly state if the "head" is the grandfather (male) or grandmother (female).
Conclusion: Since the specific gender of the "Lawyer" who is the head is not defined, and we only know the mother-in-law is a lawyer, we cannot definitively identify which grandparent is the "Grandfather" and what his specific occupation is.
