Richard is 33 years old today this is 3 times as old as his brother Philip was when Richard was the age Philip is today how old is Philip?

33 divided by 3 is 11 11 x 2 = 22 so phillipp is 22 __________________ That is what the answer USED to be. Let me explain to why it's wrong. First of all, here's the question asked CORRECTLY in a way that it would make sense. Richard is 33 years old today. 33 is 3 times the age Philip was back when Richard was the age that Philip is today. In other words, Philip was 11 when Richard was Philip's CURRENT age. I don't get where the hell he got the 2 from, but anyway, the answer to the question is - Too little information. It just tells you that Philip was 11 years old when Richard was Philip's current age. The 33 has absolutely nothing to do with it but confuse you. Either way, the question is either missing a few facts or the answer is simply 'Too little information; no answer; etc.' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I agree. Too little info. you can put phillip was 11 when Richard was his current age. it is too little info especially if you have currently been studying that kind of possibility or have already covered it answered other questions like that. ___________________________________________________________________ Although I do agree that there's too little info to call that a proper question, you can still find the answer by guessing around, and it's twenty-two. Richard was 22 when Philip was 11 (so they have an eleven year difference.) Now Richard is 33, and thus Philip is 22. Makes sense. But I had to like guess and stuff to reach that and the question is asked in a stupid way, quite honestly.
