A boy and a pig weigh as much as 5 crates. The pig weighs as much as 4 cats. 2 cats and the pig weigh as much as 3 crates. How many cats weigh as much as the boy?

Answer 6 cats

B + P = 5 Crates. P = 4 Cats. 2 Cats + P = 3 crates. So, 2 Cats + 4 cats = 3 crates, meaning 1 crate =2 cats. That means that the Boy plus 4 cats = 10 cats, which means the boy is the weight of 6 cats. A little complicated, but that's math!
