[Silverton Boar Dogs]

Here yall go. Kurt was 1 year old when the family dog Jake was born. When Kurt was 8, he was twice as old as his little sister Katie. Their second dog, Kirby, was born when Katie was 2 years old. Now Katie is 2/3 the age of Kurt, and Kirby is 3 times as old as their cat Hunter.

How old are the kids, dogs, and cat now?

Kirt = X                             Kirt = 12, Katie = 8,  Kirby = 6, Jake = 11, Hunter = 2
Jake = X-1
Katie = X-4
Kirby = (X-4)-2
Hunter = ((X-4)-2) /3
