\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If you have two more sisters than brothers, and each of your sisters also has two more sisters than brothers, then your youngest brother has six more sisters than brothers. Here's how I arrived at this answer:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You have two more sisters than brothers, so let's call the number of brothers \"\"b\"\" and the number of sisters \"\"s\"\".
\n" ); document.write( "According to the information you provided, \"s+=+b+%2B+2\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Each of your sisters also has two more sisters than brothers, so if we call the number of brothers of your sisters \"\"B\"\" and the number of sisters of your sisters \"\"S\"\", then \"S+=+B+%2B+2\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since you have two more sisters than brothers, and each of your sisters also has two more sisters than brothers, that means your oldest brother has \"2+%2B+2+=+4+\"more sisters than brothers.\r
