A fraction like 1/15, or about 6.67%, can show up when a small group is part of a larger one, such as one out of fifteen students choosing the same snack. It can also describe a small discount or a portion of a monthly budget.

To picture 1/15, imagine splitting something into fifteen equal pieces and taking one. It’s a little less than one-tenth, so you can estimate it as roughly seven out of every hundred.

A common point of confusion is treating 6.67% as 6.67 instead of as a part out of 100. It’s also easy to assume 1/15 is exactly 7%, but that’s a useful estimate rather than the precise value.
