Given in the question that ;

She plays video games = 9 hours per week

The kitten plays video games = 2/3 as much less time per week

To get the hours the kitten plays the video games, find 2/3 of the time she plays video games as;

2/3 * 9 = 6 hours

So, the kitten plays video games for 6 hours as much less time compared to her

To get the hours the kitten plays video games, perform subtraction as:

9 - 6 = 3 hours

Answer

3 hours
