How do we distinguish between Related goods and Unrelated goods

Answer :

Goods are said to be related when demand for one changes in response to change in price of the other. For example, increase in the price of coffee is expected to cause increase in demand for tea. So tea and coffee are related goods.

Goods are unrelated when demand for is independent of any change in the price of the other. Demand for bags for example, is not affected by change in price of oils. Oils and bags are unrelated goods.
