Answer is: concentration of the solution in percent is C. 14.9%.

m (KCl) = 33,6 g.

m (H ₂O) = 192 g.

m (solution) = m (KCl) + m (H₂O).

m (solution) = 33,6 g + 192 g.

m (solution) = 225,6 g.

concentration of the solution in percent = m (KCl) : m (solution) · 100%.

concentration of the solution in percent = 33,6 g : 225,6 g · 100%.

concentration of the solution in percent = 14,9%.
