Final answer:

Walter will have earned 16 days of vacation after working for 2 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the number of vacation days Walter will have earned after working for 2 years, we can set up a proportion using the information given. We know that Walter earned 6 days of vacation after working for 9 months. We can set up the proportion:

9 months / 6 days = 24 months / x days

Cross multiplying, we have:

9x = 24 * 6

Solving for x, we find that:

x = (24 * 6) / 9

x = 16

Therefore, Walter will have earned 16 days of vacation after working for 2 years.
