1/15 = ≈6.67%
Rounded to 2 decimal places.
A value like 1/15, or about 6.67%, can show up when a small portion of something is being measured. For example, if one person out of a group of 15 volunteers is absent, that is roughly 1/15 of the group.
To picture 1/15 quickly, imagine a whole divided into 15 equal parts and focus on just one part. It is a little more than 6%, so you can estimate it as about 7% when you need a fast mental comparison.
A common mistake is treating 1/15 as exactly 6% or exactly 7%, even though both are only estimates. Another point of confusion is that 1/15 is much smaller than 1/10, which equals 10%, because fifteenths divide the whole into more pieces.
