Answer ...........> The percentage of student expected to major physics in university is 2%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 66 students are expected to major physics in university.

We are also given that the total number of students in the university is 3300 students.

Therefore,

estimated % of university students that will be majoring physics =
(66)/(3300) * 100 = 2 %

Hope this helps :)
