Answer:

66.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Enrollment of new students per semester (Desired capacity) = 2,100

Holly​ Lutze, placed a ceiling on enrollment of new students = 1,600

Conflicting schedules allowed only (Actual intake) = 1,400 new students

Therefore,

The utilization rate for Southeastern​:

=(1,400)/(2,100)*100

= 66.67%
