Quizplus · Accepted Answer

We can set up the proportion: 
% / 100 = 17.1 / 135 
% = 100 * (17.1 / 135) 
% = 12.67%
Therefore, the answer is D, rounded to the nearest hundredth. To find out what percent of 135 is 17.1, we can use the following proportion:

x/100 = 17.1/135

Cross-multiplying, we get:

135x = 100 * 17.1

Simplifying, we get:

x = (100 * 17.1)/135

x = 12.67%

Therefore, the answer is D) 12.67%.
