R ÷ S means that R is the mother of S.
R × S means that R is the father of S.
R - S means that R is the sister of S.
Given relation code:
Code | Relation |
÷ | Mother |

Find: Which expression shows that P is the Father of R?
Let's check each option one by one.
Option 1) P × Q ÷ R
P is the father of Q, and Q is the mother of R.
Here, P is the maternal grandfather of R. (Incorrect)
Option 2) Q × P - R
Q is the father of P, and P is the sister of R.
Here, P is the sister of R. (Incorrect)
Option 3) R × Q - P
R is the father of Q, and Q is the sister of P.
Here, the gender of P is not clear. So we can't find How P is related to R. (Incorrect)
Option 4) P × Q - R
