What is the fraction for 33 present?

The answer depends on 33 present out of how many. If 33 people were present at some event out of 33 who were due to attend then the fraction is 33/33 = 1. If out of 330 who were due to attend, then the fraction is 33/330 = 0.1. I believe the question may be a misspelling of the word "percent." If this is the case, the fraction for 33% is 33/100
