Am I doing this right?

Kai takes off from parking structure 1 at 3:00 PM, driving north. One hour later, Jacob takes off from parking structure 1, too,  but he had south, and his speed is 15 mph more than Kai's. At exactly 6:00 PM, Kai  has driven 23 miles more than Jacob. How far has each driven?
 
After using substitution I got 136 miles for both Kai and Jacob and was wondering if that answer is incorrect.
