Answer 1

34 года, т.к. (10+2) * 3 - 2= 34

Answer 2

Problem Analysis

We are given that a son is currently 10 years old, and in two years, he will be three times younger than his father. We need to determine the current age of the father.

Solution

Let's assume the current age of the father is x years.

According to the given information, in two years, the son will be three times younger than his father. This can be expressed as:

10 + 2 = 3(x + 2)

Simplifying the equation:

12 = 3x + 6

Subtracting 6 from both sides:

6 = 3x

Dividing both sides by 3:

x = 2

Therefore, the current age of the father is 2 years.

Answer

The current age of the father is 2 years.
