A family photo contained: one grandfather, one grandmother,
two fathers, two mothers,
six children, four grandchildren,
two brothers, two sisters,
three sons, three daughters,
one father-in-law, one mother-in-law, one daughter-in-law

29 people you may think, but no, what is the least number of people here?

Be back with the solution in about sixteen hours.

Hey there,

I got it too,there are 8 members. It drove me nuts for few minutes,lol.

grandfather/one father/father-in-law = 1 father and his son = 2 fathers

grandmother/one mother/motehr-in-law=1 mother and her dauther-in-law=2 mothers

4 grand children

so 2+2+4 = 8.

regards,
