Starting with the oldest, Paleozoic, Mesozoic & Cenozoic.
how was the phanerozoic eon divided.
The order of geologic time from smallest to largest is Phanerozoic, Proterozoic, Archean and Hadean (Deep Time). These four periods are called Eons which can be further subdivided into Eras, Periods and Epochs. Most people are more familiar with the periods such as Cambrian, Permian, Triassic, Jurassic and. Cretaceous and many more to numerous to mention. To learn more, Google geologic time scale.

Phanerozoic.
We currently live in the Phanerozoic eon, which began around 541 million years ago and is marked by the diversification of multicellular life. The Phanerozoic eon is divided into three eras: the Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic.
The geological time scale is divided into: Eons (Such as the Proterozoic and the Phanerozoic) THEN Eras (Such as the Mesozoic and the Cenozoic) THEN Periods (Such as the Cretaceous and the Quaternary) THEN Series, alternatively Epoch (Such as the Pleistocene and the Holocene) THEN Stage (Such as the Campanian and the Tarantian)

It is the Phanerozoic Eon.
There have been 3 eras in the Phanerozoic Eon.The Paleozoic Era (542 - 251Ma)The Mesozoic Era (251 - 65Ma)The Cenozoic Era (65Ma - Now)
The Phanerozoic Eon(542Ma - now) is made up of the Paleozoic Era(542 - 251 Ma), the MesozoicEra(251 - 65.5Ma) and the Cenozoic Era(65.5Ma - now)
