Kurt is three years less than twice Jody’s age. If the sum of their ages is 30 then what is the age of Kurt?

Let the Jody's age be x

Then, Kurt's age will be 2x -3

Sum of their ages is 30

Then, x + 2x - 3 = 30

3x - 3 = 30

3x = 30 + 3

3x = 33

x = 33/3

x = 11

So, Jody's age is 11 years.

Then, Kurt's age = 2(11) - 3

= 22 - 3

= 19 years

Thus, the Kurt's age is 19 years.
