How evolutionists determine if two organisms share a common ancestor?
Evolutionists determine that two organisms have a common ancestor is by looking at fossil evidence in different rock layers using the law of Superposition (Oldest layers are on the bottom, newest are on the top) and compare the skulls or other bones to each other in order of oldest to newest (or newest to oldest). Another way to determine this is to examine the amount of DNA a certain species shares with another species. An example of this would be that Humans share roughly 90% of our DNA with chimpanzees or the other Great Apes.

Which primate is the closest relative to the common ancestor of all primates?
The last common ancestor between Homo sapiens and their closest relatives among other apes (Chimpanzees) occurred around 6 to 8 million years ago. Because this field is such a new one, and because the information is so limited, as of yet it is difficult to assign a specific species to the common ancestor. Right now the closest we have come is Sahelanthropus tchadensis.
What relationship would my first cousin's child be to my grandchild?
They would be second cousins, once removed. The descent is from a common ancestor. Thus 1st cousins share a grandparent as a common ancestor. 2nd cousins share a great-grandparent as an ancestor. If the descent from the common ancestor is not an equal number of generations, the inequality is expressed as 'removed' from the oldest generation being compared.
