Can any one explain this question in detail please.

It can b because also as nothing is mentioned if a or d is a girl or boy.

Even in answer no 1 you say its 3 or 4 so data is insufficient.

Monisha said:   1 decade ago
The answer is wrong because the given hints did not explain whether 'A' and 'D' are boy or girl.

Ajit said:   1 decade ago
In question-2 (a) can also be an answer because it's not mentioned that A and C are boys or girls.

I will agree with manish. The answer is wrong because the given hints did not explain whether 'A' and 'D' are boy or girl.

@Suman and @Monisha. It is mentioned if u look closely.

A sits with "his" best friend. So he is boy.
Then E is "brother" of C. So ofcourse E is also boy.

AED are sitting together. A and E are boys (proved). In each bench there must be atleast 1 girl. Since A and E are both guys, D must be a girl.

Hope this helps.

As per my meaning "A" would be sure male because in question last line clarify that "A" sits with 'HIS' friend. And in this question asking only possible combination of girls so it should be right answer.

How can he say that A is a boy and D is a girl?

Sanjeev said:   1 decade ago
As A is a boy so how can be 3 or 4 girls in question 1. It must be 3.

Its doesn't makes any sense, a best friend can be male or female, A is best friend of Boy E, so the gender of A & D is still doubtful.
