Answer:

Percentage = 13%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Total population = 173,000

Number of students = 23,000

To find the percentage;

[tex] Percentage = \frac {Number \; of \; students}{Total \; population} * 100 [/tex]

[tex] Percentage = \frac {23,000}{173,000} * 100 [/tex]

[tex] Percentage = \frac {23}{173} * 100 [/tex]

[tex] Percentage = 0.1330 * 100 [/tex]

Percentage = 13.3 ≈ 13%

Therefore, the percentage of Aiken County residents that are enrolled in Aiken County schools is 13%.
