False. Julie could be the name of a boy.
> 2. Julia also has one brother, named Martin.
OK
> 3. Altogether, there are four siblings: three girls and one boy (Martin).
Where did you identify the third girl?
> 4. From Martin’s perspective, his sisters are all three of the girls (Julia and her two sisters).
Here's where the answer comes from (Julia and her two sisters).
More directly: "How many sisters does her brother Martin have?"
> 5. Therefore, Martin has three sisters.
OK.
So the reasoning might have come to the "right" answer but the way it arrived at the answer was incorrect.
