To solve for x in the equation 102.5(x-11.92)=71.6, we can start by dividing both sides of the equation by 102.5:

(x-11.92) = 71.6 / 102.5

Next, we can simplify the right side of the equation:

x - 11.92 = 0.6985365853658536

To isolate x, we need to add 11.92 to both sides of the equation:

x = 0.6985365853658536 + 11.92

x ≈ 12.618

Rounding to 3 decimal places, x ≈ 12.618.

Therefore, the correct answer is 12.618.
