Answer:

$6,900+ per month

Step-by-step explanation:

The rent she is paying should be 1/3 or less than her income. Therefore she has to earn 3 times or more of her income. The least she could earn every month is:

2,300 × 3 = $6,900

As for the equation, if we assume the rent is <em>x</em>, the equation for her income will be <em>3x</em>.
