Type the correct answer in each box. Use numerals instead of words. Theo and Kade worked on a school project together. Theo worked on the project 3 fewer hours than Kade did. Altogether, they worked for a total of 27 hours. How many hours did they each work on the school project?

Theo worked on the project for
hours.
Kade worked on the project for
hours.

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 for 15 hours and Theo worked for 12 hours
