Answer:

32 hours a week

Explanation:

First you have to find out how much Jeanette makes. You can do this by multiplying 16 x 18 since she makes $16 18 times a week. This gives you $288 that she makes each week.

Now to find how much Logan would have to work you take 288 and divide it by 9. You do this because you need to see how many times 9 goes into 288 to give you the amount of hours. When you divide you get 32.
