To find the diver's elevation when he is 23% of the way down, we need to find 23% of 97.2 feet.
23% of 97.2 feet = 0.23 * 97.2 feet = 22.356 feet.
Therefore, the diver's elevation when he is 23% of the way down is 22.356 feet. Answer: \boxed{22.356}.
A diver searches for a sunken treasure that is 97.2 feet below the surface. What is the diver's elevation when he is 23 of the way down?

To find the diver's elevation when he is 23% of the way down, we need to subtract 23% of 97.2 feet from the surface elevation.
23% of 97.2 feet = 0.23 * 97.2 feet = 22.356 feet
Subtracting this from the surface elevation:
97.2 feet - 22.356 feet = 74.844 feet
Therefore, the diver's elevation when he is 23% of the way down is 74.844 feet.
