Answer: $300 per month (assumed)
Step-by-step explanation:
As figures are lacking in this question, I will use assumed figures and you can use it as a reference.
Assume Penelope had been tutoring for 60 hours a month and her hourly rate was $10 originally.
If she reduces this time to half, the amount of hours she begins to tutor is:
= 60 hours / 2
= 30 hours
At a rate of $10 an hour, her monthly income becomes:
= 10 * 30
= $300 per month
