If Alice and Gunther got the same number it would be 6 each. But she got 2 more than him, which is just a +1/-1 adjustment. So Alice got 7 and Gunther got 5.

Five.
Started with 25, still have 12, need to account for 13.
Dog took one, so that’s 12.
If Alice and Gunther got the same number it would be 6 each.
But she got 2 more than him, which is just a +1/-1 adjustment.
So Alice got 7 and Gunther got 5.
