  • Three brothers, two sisters each. Count carefully.

    Gemini Pro 1.0: Sally has 1 sister. Explanation: Sally is a girl. She has 3 brothers. All the siblings share the same sisters. Since Sally is one of the sisters, and each brother has 2 sisters in total, there must be one other girl besides Sally in the family. Therefore, Sally has 1 sister.

    Ling 3.1 Flash: Sally has 1 sister. Here's why: Sally has 3 brothers, and each of those brothers has 2 sisters. Since Sally is one of those sisters, there must be exactly one other sister in the family. So Sally has 1 sister. (The family has 6 children total: 3 brothers, Sally, and 1 other sister.)
