Solution:

Concept:

Use the given blood relations and gender clues to complete the family tree, then count the female members.

Explanation:

The basic family chart provides the relations between members. The extra clues are: R is the only niece of P, Q is the only aunt of H, and K has the same gender as G. These clues fix the gender of the unknown members. After drawing the completed family diagram, the condition that C is a male is applied. Counting all the female members in that final diagram gives three females in the family. Therefore, the total number of female members is three.
