Answer: 33/2000

Explanation: As you can see, each time you add a zero to the denominator, the fraction (when divided properly) gets smaller, so I added another 0 to 200 and got the fraction: 33/2000 and when I do TIBO (Top [the numerator] In Bottom [the denominator] Out) I get the percentage 1.65%


Note to You: DON'T FORGET TO ADD YOUR PERCENTAGE TO THE END OF 1.65, OTHERWISE YOUR ANSWER WILL BE COUNTED AS INCORRECT.

the answer is: 1.65% not 1.65
