The second digit is a factor of 16. The third digit is an odd number.

My grandson knew the answer (2.5%) from the mark scheme. The Winner gets BA for showing their method.

Acknowledgment to bobbin's posts, they raise an interesting if not a moot point !!
You didn’t ask for the method! You have done on other questions. You need to be consistent. Sheesh.
