Ankita's weight is 20% less than that of her grandmother. The grandmother weights 26 kg less than grandmother's husband, whose weight is 81 kg. If Ankita's brother is 8 kg heavier than Ankita, then what is the weight (in kg) of Ankita's brother?

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option D
Grand mother's husband's, weight = 81 kg
Grand mother's weight = (81 - 26) kg = 55 kg
20% = $$\frac{1}{5}$$
Ankita's weight = 55 × $$\frac{4}{5}$$ = 44 kg
Ankita's brother's weight = 44 + 8 = 52 kg
