John visits three different countries. He stays in the first country for 2 weeks and he spends twice as long in each of the other two countries. How much time does he spend on the trip? Give me reasons, before answering the question

He spends 2 * 2 = 4 weeks in the other two countries. So he spends 2 * 4 = 8 weeks in those countries combined. That means he is gone for 2 + 8 = 10 weeks. So the final answer is 10.
