How to report sale of rental property that was partially inherited

My sister and I jointly owned rental property. She died in 2018, and I inherited her half. I then sold the property. How do I report this, since the basis for each of the two halves is different, and recapture of depreciation only applies to the half I already owned?  Do I simply enter this as two separate transactions, or do I add the two bases together, and report only the depreciation recapture from my half, and report it as a single transaction?
