Solution

To solve this question, we need to create a family tree based on the information given:

  1. A is mother of B, so A is female and B could be either male or female.
  2. B is brother of C, so B is male and C could be either male or female.
  3. C and Q are siblings, so Q could be either male or female.
  4. Y is daughter of P, so Y is female and P is either male or female.
  5. Z is brother in law of B, so Z is male.
  6. B is son of D, so D could be either male or female but since B's mother is A, D is a male.
  7. A has only one son, and that's B.
  8. There are only two married couples in the family, and P is married to B. So, P is a female (since B is a male) and the other couple is A and D.

From the above information, we can conclude that the male members in the family are B, Z, and D. So, there are 3 male members in the family.
