$16/9$ Volts

Voltage = Potential Difference = $"Work Done"/"Charge"$
Change in Electric Potential = $delta E$ = Work Done by the charge.

So,

Voltage = $(17 - 1)/9$ Volts
$= 16/9$ Volts

A charge of 9 C9 C is passing through points A and B on a circuit. If the charge's electric potential changes from 17 J17 J to 1 J1 J, what is the voltage between points A and B?
