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.

Yes, right, Agree @Anselam.

Pranaya said:   7 years ago
'G' may be male/female so option 2 is correct because B, C, D are girls that is final.

Arfath said:   1 decade ago
There can be only Three girls as E is stated to be brother of C.
