Answer:

59.09%

Explanation:

We can calculate it with a direct rule of 3. If 22 chapters are the 100% of the book, what percent is 13 chapters?


\text{22 chapters} -\!\!\!-\!\!\!- 100\%\\ \\\text{13 chapters} -\!\!\!-\!\!\!- x\%

We use the formula of the direct rule of 3:


x = \frac {13* 100}{22} \\ \\ x = \frac {1300}{22}

x = 59.09

She has read the 59.09% of the book.
