1/18 = ≈5.56%
Rounded to 2 decimal places.
A fraction like 1/18 shows up when something is divided equally among 18 people or groups. For example, if one person in a group of 18 is selected, that person represents 5.56% of the whole group.
To picture 1/18 quickly, imagine a circle or bar split into 18 equal parts, with only one part shaded. It is a little more than 5%, so you can estimate it as about one part out of every twenty.
A common mistake is thinking 1/18 is the same as 1/8 because the numbers look similar. It is much smaller than 1/8, since dividing something into 18 pieces makes each piece noticeably smaller than dividing it into 8 pieces.
