In a code, 'A & B' means 'A is the father of B', 'A % B' means 'A is the mother of B', and 'A @ B' means 'A is the brother of B'. In the expression K @ L % M & N, how is K related to N?
K is N's paternal granduncle. L is K's sister and is the mother of M, who is N's father. So L is N's paternal grandmother, and her brother K is the paternal granduncle of N.

- BMaternal uncle
- CPaternal granduncleCorrect
- DMaternal granduncle
Explanation
K @ L: K is the brother of L. L % M: L is the mother of M. M & N: M is the father of N. So L is N's paternal grandmother, and K, her brother, is N's paternal granduncle. Maternal granduncle is wrong because the link goes through N's father's side.
