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.

If the arrangement is like that:

Bench 1: A, D.

Bench 2: F, B, C.

Bench 3: G, E.

Then below all question get wrong, is it possible arrangement please.

According to me, The question is in wrong format. It should have been, how many girls can we assume out of 7? Otherwise, the answer is data inadequate.

But the question is still not clear that A, E and D has to b in the same bench. How could we derive to this conclusion, can anyone explain please?

A sits on the bench I with his best friends acc to question they say A sits with HIS best friend his means A is a male member obvious.

There is exact three girls because A is sit with his friend. It means A is a male and E is male So BCD are only females.

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 answer is option "D" because they didn't metion the genders of B, G and D they can be either boys or girls.

Indirectly given that A sits with HIS best friends which means A is a male and D is the only female in the 1st row.

3 girls should be there definitely because A is a boy because his word is used for A, and his represent a boy.
