Assistant: 
The first part of your initial question states that when you were 4, your sister was half your age, meaning that she was 4 / 2 = 2 years old.
Now you are 28, meaning that 24 years have passed since you were 4.
This means that your sister is now 2 + 24 = 26 years old. If your sister was half your age when you were four, then she was 4 / 2 = 2 years old.

Since you are now 28 years old, your sister is now 28 - (4 - 2) = 26 years old. So when you were 4 years old if your sister had half your age that means, she was 2 at the time. That means that the age diference is 2 years, wich will stay constant in time. So if you are now 28, Simply take 2 away and that leaves us with the factual response. 26 Years old. Your initial thought was wrong. When you were four your sister was half your age and therefore two years old.

This means she was born between one and three years after you for there to be at least one day when she was two and you four.

If you are now 28 she is at most three and at least one year older than you, depending on how your birthdays are arranged. As the question is phrased to ask for one particular answer I answered 26.
