Answer:

It distorts the traditional concept of a love song.

It emphasizes the search for meaning in a seemingly meaningless world.

Explanation:

"The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" is an extremely sentimental and striking poem, besides being melancholy and sad, causing great reflections in the reader, about what it is to be loved, what it is to have hope and what it is to feel empty and alone.

The poem features a speaker who longs to establish a romantic affair with someone, but has all his attempts unsuccessful. This speaker does not want to abandon this desire, but his hopes are completely empty, making him feel melancholy and try desperately to seek some connection, some meaning in the world that is as empty as he is. This destabilizes the concept of a love song as something happy and comfortable, as the poem shows a visceral and uncomfortable version of a love song in the life of someone hopeless about love, but very much wants to feel it.

Troyanec [42]
The answer is 45. The answer is like that because 12 (your percent) times 375 is 4500 and you can only go to 100 percent so 4500 divide 100 is 45.
