Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: R and S are A's sisters, so they are female and not married to A (since they are his sisters). So A's wife is not R or S.
Step 2: W is wife of E, so W is taken. V is wife of B, so V is taken.
Step 3: Neither R nor T are wives of C. So C's wife is not R or T. D is not married to R, S, or T.
Step 4: Wives available: R, S, U, V, T, W. V and W are taken by B and E. So remaining wives for A, C, D, F: R, S, U, T.
Step 5: A's wife cannot be R or S (sisters), so A's wife must be U or T. C's wife cannot be R or T, so C's wife can be S or U. D's wife cannot be R, S, T, so D's wife can be U only (since V and W are taken).
Step 6: If D's wife is U, then A cannot have U. So A's wife must be T. Then C's wife can be S. F gets R.
Step 7: So A's wife is T.
Step 8: Final Answer: T.
