CorrectNot quiteAnswer A
Correct answer: A
Explanation
P is Q's grandmother, so P is the elderly woman and N, whose daughter-in-law is O, is the elderly man.
M and Q are the grandchildren, and R is the daughter, which leaves L as the son.
The son is the father of the two grandchildren, so L is M's father.
Worth noting
N is M's grandfather. Q is M's brother.
