33*100/88 = 37.5 %
You did it right but to get percent from fraction multiply by 100 and your arithmetic is wrong.
33/88 = .375

The real question is:
33/88 = x/100
33/88 = x/100

I get a different answer.
33/88 = 0.375
Move the decimal two places to the right.
0.375 = 37.5%
Let's check that.
0.375 * 88 = 33
Yep! My answer is correct.
