To find the percentage, we can use the formula:
part/whole x 100%
So, for this problem, we have:
3.1/23.6 x 100% = 13.14%
Therefore, the answer is B) 13.14%. To find the percentage, we need to divide 3.1 by 23.6 and then multiply by 100. 
Percentage = (3.1/23.6) x 100 = 0.13135 x 100 = 13.14%
Rounding to the nearest hundredth, we get 13.14%. Therefore, the answer is B.
