Solution

To calculate Jamie's earnings, we need to multiply the number of saplings he planted by the amount he is paid per sapling.

Step 1: Identify the number of saplings and the pay per sapling. Number of saplings = 2434 Pay per sapling = $0.17

Step 2: Multiply the number of saplings by the pay per sapling. Earnings = Number of saplings * Pay per sapling Earnings = 2434 * $0.17

Step 3: Calculate the earnings. Earnings = $413.78

So, Jamie earned $413.78 for the week.
