You might wonder how small that fraction looks as a percent. The fraction 1⁄55 is equal to 1.82%.
Because 1⁄55 is a tiny part of a whole, it’s useful when you need to talk about very small portions, like the chance of picking a specific card from a 55‑card deck. Seeing it as a percentage makes the size easier to picture at a glance.
The value is rounded to two decimal places, so it’s precise enough for most everyday calculations without getting bogged down in long numbers. This kind of rounded percentage is common in reports, surveys, and simple data summaries.
