A man is looking at a picture of a man on the wall and states: Brothers and sisters I have none, but this man’s father is my father’s son. Who is the man in the picture in relation to the man looking at the picture?
Answer:
The man in the picture is his son. Since he doesn’t have any brothers or sisters, the statement my father’s son is himself. A shortened version would be this man’s father is myself, so he is the father of the man in the picture.
