0.15% of the players won the game.

Explanation:

To find percentage, you use the formula $p$ $p$ $o$ $o$ $r$ $r$ $t$ $t$ $i$ $i$ $o$ $o$ $n$ $n$ $/$ $/$ $w$ $w$ $h$ $h$ $o$ $o$ $l$ $l$ $e$ $e$ $\times 100$ $xx 100$ .

In your case, the portion is 18 and the whole is 12,000.

Input these values into the formula so that $\frac{18}{12, 000} \times 100$ $18/(12,000) xx 100$ .

When calculated this equals $\frac{3}{20}$ $3/20$ % or 0.15%
