Answer:

Philosophy raises questions. Science then tries to answer those questions. They truly work hand in hand. The question asker (philosophy) and the question answerer (science). You've probably heard the word from your friends when they are super buzzed, (or lil peep), "im feeling philosophical." AND that basically means that you are feeling the need to question things. You want to learn the deeper meaning. The people that answer those deep questions are the scientists. Their job is to figure out the answer.

The only difference between science and philosophy is that science only deals with empirical data to come to conclusions, while philosophy can use more than just data. Philosophy works even better with empirical data, because it's just another form of evidence.
