$323

You find the rate by dividing 171 by 9 which is 19
19 times 17=323

Answer:

$323

Explanation:

Hello! First you would need to divide $171 by 9 to see how much money she makes an hour....

$171 / 9 = $19 an hour

Now that you know how much she makes an hour, multiply that amount by 17 to find out how much money she will make if she works for 17 hours.

$19 * 17 = $323

She will make $323 if she works for 17 hrs. :)

Hope this helps!
