  • Three brothers, two sisters each. Count carefully.

    Claude Opus 4.1: Let me work through this step-by-step. Sally has 3 brothers. Each of Sally's brothers has 2 sisters. Since Sally is a girl, she is one of the sisters that each brother has. If each brother has 2 sisters total, and Sally is one of them, then there must be 1 other sister besides Sally. Therefore, Sally has 1 sister.

    NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Super (free): Sally has 1 sister. Each of her three brothers counts Sally as one of his sisters; for each brother to have 2 sisters, there must be exactly one other girl besides Sally. Hence Sally’s number of sisters is 1.
