Quick Solution

This question is from the same logic puzzle as previous ones. To find the amount of money G has, we can use the clues to eliminate possibilities for her.

1. Deducing the Money Distribution

We can solve for every girl's money amount by following the clues in a logical order:

First, several clues give us the amounts for four of the seven girls directly:
- A has Rs. 10
- B has Rs. 200
- C has Rs. 60
- F has Rs. 80
This leaves three girls (D, E, G) and three unassigned amounts of money from the original list: Rs. 20, Rs. 40, and Rs. 120.
The clue "G has an amount which is neither Rs. 40 nor Rs. 120" is the key to solving the question.
Out of the three remaining options for G, if her amount is not 40 or 120, it must be the only one left.

2. Conclusion

Therefore, G must have Rs. 20 with her.

Final Answer: The amount G has with her is Rs. 20.
