I think option D is correct.
Where G, A, D could be girls or boys. Because they didn't mention A and G, D girl, or boy.

The correct arrangement is.
1. AED.
2. FB.
3. CG.
It is clearly mentioned that " F" only sits with " B". And gender of " G" Haven't been mentioned so it can be a male or female.

Another answer which satisfies all the conditions is:
Bench-1: A B' F
Bench-2: E D
Bench-3: G C'
where (') symbolizes girl. And, one of E or D is a girl.
Bench-1: A B' F
Bench-2: E D
Bench-3: G C'
where (') symbolizes girl. And, one of E or D is a girl.

There should only be 3 female. It is mentioned that there should be at least 1 girl in a bench and it says a sits with 'his' best friends, i.e., E and D, E is said to be brother of C. Therefore D is the possible female.

F Is a Boy Hence male Given.
E Is Brother Hence Male Given.
A Sits With HIS Best Friends Given (HIS Used For A Hence Male).
So It Is Clear That 3 Are Male.
Total no.of Students Are 7,
So There May Be 3 Or 4 Girls.

Table 1 = A,D
Table 2 = FBE
Table 3 = C and G.
In this arrangement, we can say in 1 st Q the answer is 3 or 4 as we can't determine that G is a girl or not.
