Answer:

She makes $1041 in 2 weeks

Explanation:

First, we can work on finding how much she makes in a day. To find the daily income, we need to multiply 17.35 by 6 since she works 6 hours a day.

17.35x6=104.1

She makes $104.10 a day. Now we multiply by 5 since she works 5 days a week

104.10x5=520.50 a week

Since we are trying to find how much she makes in two weeks, we multiply the weekly income by 2

520.5x2=1041

She makes $1041 in 2 weeks
