To find out how many hours the figure skater will practice in 9 weeks, we first calculate the total number of hours practiced in one week and then multiply it by 9.

The skater practices for 9 hours each day.

There are 7 days in a week, so:

\[ 9 \text{ hours/day} \times 7 \text{ days/week} = 63 \text{ hours/week} \]

Now we multiply the weekly practice hours by the number of weeks:

\[ 63 \text{ hours/week} \times 9 \text{ weeks} = 567 \text{ hours} \]

Thus, the figure skater will practice 567 hours in 9 weeks.
