Didn't know this was a course in Calculus or Algebra, how do you
calculate the work without multiplying.

You take the dot product. More specifically, you integrate the
dot product.

The dot product is a sum of scalar products, at least as
conventionally expressed. :-)

I simply 3x3=9 and nothing more. the others can dot as much as they
want.

Then you will get the wrong answer. The dot product depends on the angle between the two vectors.
