  • Three brothers, two sisters each. Count carefully.

    Gemini 2.5 Pro (I/O Edition): Let's break this down:\n\n1. Sally is a girl.\n2. Sally has 3 brothers.\n3. These 3 brothers are all part of the same family.\n4. Each brother shares the same sisters.\n5. If one brother has 2 sisters, those 2 sisters are Sally and one other girl.\n\nSo, Sally has 1 sister.

    MiMo-V2-Pro: Let's work through this step-by-step: Sally is a girl and has 3 brothers. Each of those brothers has 2 sisters. Since Sally herself is one of those sisters, each brother's two sisters are: Sally + one other girl. That means there are 2 girls in the family total. Sally has 1 sister.
