C Correct answer
Explanation

Son's age = 2. Father's age = 11 × 2 = 22. Grandfather's age = 2 × 22 = 44. The grandfather is 44 years old. Option A (2) is the son's age, B (22) is the father's age, and D (88) would require 4× multiplier.

AI explanation

The son is 2 years old. The father's age is eleven times the son's age: 11 × 2 = 22 years. The grandfather's age is twice the father's age: 2 × 22 = 44 years. This is a straightforward multi-step multiplication problem — each relationship is applied in sequence (son → father → grandfather), and working through the chain confirms 44 as the grandfather's age. The other options represent stopping at intermediate steps (22) or over-multiplying (88, i.e., 4× the father instead of 2×), or simply restating the son's age (2).
