Since, Q is the granddaughter and only three

generations are in the family.
That means, in case (1) & case (3) V sits
immediate right of S.
 Three persons sit between T and U, who
is a male member of the family.
 X and T are not sitting together.
In case (1) T sits immediate left of P and X sits
immediate left of Q, case (3) is not valid.
Based on the above given information we have
the final arrangement as follows:

Case (2) is not valid as T’s mother-in-law sits

fourth to the right of S but none of them sits at
the corner.
Case (3) is not X and T are not sitting together.

 One person sits between Q and W and
either of them sits at the corner.
 Q sits third to the left of V but is not the
