Answer:

222 2/9 hours

Explanation:

Income = hours * dollars per hours

We need an income of 2000

We get $9/ hour

Substitute in what we know

2000 = hour * $9

Divide by 9 on each side

2000/9 = hours

222.222(repeating) = hours

222 2/9 hours

If we want to know how many days, we will divide by 5 since she works 5 hours a day

222 2/9 ÷5

44 4/9 days
