.

Let x be the number under the problem's question.


Then from the condition, you have this inequality


    0.3*(14x) <= 6.


From the inequality,   x <=  = 1.43 (rounded).


Since value of x is an integer positive number (according to the problem context),

the only suitable value for x is 1.


ANSWER.  She completed 1 problem in each week out of 14 weeks.

Solved.
