  • Three brothers, two sisters each. Count carefully.

    Claude Opus 4.5: I need to figure out how many sisters Sally has. Let me work through this step-by-step. Given information: Sally is a girl Sally has 3 brothers Each brother has 2 sisters Key insight: Sally's brothers are also Sally's siblings, so they share the same sisters.

    GPT-4 Turbo: Sally has 3 brothers, and each brother has 2 sisters. Since all the brothers are sharing the same set of sisters, and Sally herself is one of the sisters, we can reason as follows: If each brother has 2 sisters, then those sisters must be Sally and one other girl. Therefore, Sally has 1 sister.
