Solution

The correct option is B Q
There are five boys. We see that B and E can never be together. Hence there are only two ways of selecting five boys, viz. ABCDF and AECDF. But the first possibility is not possible because if B would go then R should also go, and if C goes than Q should also go. Hence AECDF is the only possibility in which case C’s friend Q would be the lone girl member
