Question

Grandma Assignment: This was my previous professor’s son’s fourth grade homework assign- ment. Maxine, Mabel, Mavis, Millie, and Martha were grandmothers. Their daughters were named Carla, Carol, Cindy, Cathy, and Caren, and the daugthers were married to John, Jake, Jack, Joe, and Jason. Each of the couples had one son. The names of the grandsons were Tom, Tex, Tim, Tip, and Tab.

1. Maxine’s Daughter was not Carla

2. Mavis’ son-in-law was not named Jack, and Cathy was married to Joe, but their son was not named Tab

3. Tim’s mother was not named either Carol or Carla, because Tim’s mother was Jake’s wife Cindy

4. Mabel, Millie, and Martha did not have daughters named Carla or Carol, and Martha’s son-in-law was not John because John was married to Caren, and their son was named Tom
