You can put this solution on YOUR website! Assuming that "no sisters" means "no half sisters" (from another marriage), then the probability is 0. All false statements have a probability of 0. All true statements have a probability of 1. All statements unknown to be true or false have a probability somewhere in between. Probabilities depend on what is known, and can change with increased knowledge. So probabilities can be personal things.
