Jose made $143 for 11 hours of work.

At the same rate, how many hours would he have to work to make $117?

9 hours.

To find the amount of money he makes for 1 hour, divided 143 by 11. This gives us 13. So to find out how long it would take him to make 117, do 117 divided by 13. This gives us 9. It would take him 9 hours to make 117.
