if we take 2100 to be the 100%, what is 273 off of it in percentage?

\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 2100 & 100\\ 273& x \end{array} \implies \cfrac{2100}{273}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{100}{13}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 100x=1300\implies x=\cfrac{1300}{100}\implies x=13

KIM [24]
Figure this out as though no digits are present. You can choose 8 of the 26 letters and that's it.
26^8 [you can allow repeating letters]  =  2.088 * 10^11
The total number of ways that can be chosen with letters and digits intermixed = 36^8

The probability of getting no numbers is 26^8 / 36^8 or (26/36)^8 = 0.07402
So the probability that there were be at least one digit is
1 - 0.07402 = 0.92598
