Recall that the direction of a vector can be seen from its slope, namely b/a.
let's take a peek at a couple of vectors, and multiply them by a scalar of 2.
hmmm say < 3 , 7 > , it has a slope of 7/3, now if we use a scalar of 2
2<3,7> => < 6 , 14 >, now, the slope of that is 14/6 which simplifies to, yeap, you guessed it, to 7/3, no change in the slope.
and say hmmmm < 11 , -2 >, slope of -2/11, let's multiply it by 2
2<11,-2> => <22 , -4 >, slope is -4/22 which simplifies to -2/11.
so, the vector's magnitude gets blown up, but the slope remains the same.
Let the hours Kade worked = X
Theo would be X - 3 ( 3 less than Kade).
Now you have:
X + X -3 = 27
Combine like terms:
2x - 3 = 27
Add 3 to each side:
2x = 30
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 15
Kade worked 15 hours.
Theo worked 12 hours.
