    9 hours

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We can make a proportion and solve

    She makes $306 for 17 hours of work, and she makes $162 for x hours of work

    306/17=162/x

    Cross multiply

    306*x=17*162

    306x=2754

    Now we need to solve for x, by getting x by itself. x is being multiplied by 306; to undo this, divide both sides by 306

    306x/306=2754/306

    x=9

    So, she needs to work 9 hours to make $162
