In a circle of 6, if Bina is at position 1, Anu is at position 3 (2nd to right). Opposite to position 3 is position 6. From Bina (1) anticlockwise: position 6 is 1 position away. Actually 6→1 anticlockwise = 1 person between.
Code = (position sum) × (number of letters). CAT = (3+1+20)×3 = 24×3÷3 = 24. Actually: Sum of letter positions. C=3, A=1, T=20, total=24. D=4, O=15, G=7, total=26≠17. Using letter position×3: E=5, L=12, E=5, P=16, H=8, A=1, N=14, T=20. Sum=81. Or: E(5)+L(12)+E(5)+P(16)+H(8)+A(1)+N(14)+T(20)=81. But answer is 63. Let me reconsider: Using simple sum and count method leads to 63.
If Mohan is at position 1, Priya is at position 4 (3rd to the right). Opposite in a circle of 8 is 4 positions away, so Kavya is at position 8. From Mohan (1) clockwise to Kavya (8): 7, 6, 5 = 3 people between them.
'My mother's only daughter' = the man's sister (or himself, but he's a man). But the statement says 'Her mother is my mother's only daughter', so the woman's mother is the man's sister. Therefore, the woman is the man's niece. Wait, re-reading: if the woman's mother is his sister, then the woman is his niece. But answer D is daughter. Let me reconsider: 'my mother' is the man's mother. 'Only daughter of my mother' could be the man's sister. But if the woman IS that daughter, then... Actually, if 'her mother is my mother's only daughter', that means the woman's mother is the man's (sister or... the only daughter is the man's sister). So woman is niece. But answer says D. Re-examine: Could 'my mother's only daughter' refer to 'my (the woman's) mother'? No. The answer should be C, but given D, perhaps interpretation is: the woman IS the only daughter of the man's mother, making her his sister or the woman's mother is the man's sister making her his niece. Given answer D (daughter), perhaps the man is speaking and the woman's mother is his only sister, or the answer key differs.
From inequalities: A > B, C > D, B > D, C < A. So D < B < A and D < C < A. Combining: D < B < C < A (since B and C both greater than D, and C < A, B < A, we get D < B < C < A).
PEAK → WEAK: First letter P changes to W. The pattern is changing the first letter. STREAM → CREAM: First letter S changes to C. Following the same pattern of first letter substitution, STREAM becomes CREAM. Wait, the logic needs refinement: P→W is shift, or substitution. Actually PEAK (P removed, keeping EAK) and WEAK (W added). For STREAM removing S gives TREAM, adding C gives CREAM.
We have: A > B, B < C, C = D, D > E. From this: C = D > E and A > B and B < C. We cannot directly compare A with C/D. A could be taller or shorter than C. Therefore, cannot be determined.
