The correct answer is: $1$
Given that, $\mathrm{f}=1000 \mathrm{~Hz}, \mathrm{v}=332 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}, \mathrm{l}=16.6 \mathrm{~cm}$$=16.6 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~m}$
Frequency in a organ pipe open on both ends,
$\mathrm{f}=\frac{\mathrm{nv}}{2 \mathrm{l}}$
or $\quad \mathrm{n}=\frac{2 \mathrm{fl}}{\mathrm{v}}$
or $\quad \mathrm{n}=\frac{2 \times 1000 \times 16.6 \times 10^{-2}}{332}=1$
