Answer:

Phil has 24 more rocks than Peter

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets make Peter x

Then Phil = 3x because Phil has 3 times as many rocks as Peter.

If the sum of the rocks they both have is 48, add them together.

3x+x=48

Solve the equation.

4x=48

Divide by 4.

x=12

Peter has 12 rocks, Phil has 36 rocks

36-12=24
