    Gwen is 35 years old

    Step-by-step explanation:

    In order to understand the word problem better, I turned it into and equation.

    Since Gwen is 2 years older than 3 times Robins age, the equation would be:

    Gwens age = (3 • Robins age) + 2

    G = (3 • 11) + 2

    G = (33) + 2

    G = 35

    So Gwen is 35 years old.
