Given,
A couple has 4 sons and each son has exactly 2 sisters.
To Find,
How many members are in the family?
Solution,
The couple who are parents = 2
No. of sons they have = 4
No. sisters each son has = 2
Therefore,
total number of sisters the 4 boys have = 4 x 2 = 8
So,
No of adults (the couple) = 2
No of sons = 4
No. of daughters = 8
Therefore, total number of members in the family = 2 + 4 + 8 = 14.
The number of members in the family is 14.
