Answer:

Jake is 13 years old

Explanation:

D - age of Dani

J = D+2 - age of Jake

E = 2J = 2(D+2) = 2D+4 - age od Ethan

Z = 2E = 2(2D+4) = 4D+8 - age of Zoe

The sum of their ages is 102:

D + J + E + Z = 102

D + D+2 + 2D+4 + 4D+8 = 102

8D + 14 = 102

-14 -14

8D = 88

÷8 ÷8

D = 11

J = 11+2 = 13
