  • Three brothers, two sisters each. Count carefully.

    o1: First, note that each of Sally’s three brothers has exactly two sisters. One of those sisters is clearly Sally. Since each brother’s two sisters must be the same two girls for all of them, there must be exactly one other sister besides Sally. Therefore, Sally has 1 sister.

    Ring 2.6 1T: Sally has 1 sister. (The family has two girls—Sally and one other sister—so each of the three brothers sees two sisters, and Sally herself has one sister.)
