Correct Answer: as good as


Solution : The second option is the correct answer.

When in the same sentence, two adjectives with different degrees of comparison are used, both should be complete in themselves. The phrase "not better than" may mean "worse" or "almost the same". We use as + adjective/adverb + as to make comparisons when the things we are comparing are equal in some way.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: She is as good as, if not better than, her sister.
