Three brothers, two sisters each. Count carefully.
North Mini Code: Sally has one sister. Here’s the reasoning: Sally herself is one of the sisters. Each of her three brothers has exactly two sisters. Therefore there are exactly two sisters in total among the children. Since one of those sisters is Sally, she must have one other sister.
QwQ 32B: Participants and Their Relationships: Sally is a girl with 3 brothers, so there are 3 boys in the family. Each brother (being male) has 2 sisters. Determine the Number of Girls: Every brother's sisters are the female siblings in the family. Since each brother has 2 sisters, there must be 2 girls in total.
