1/7 as a percentage is 14.29%. This small number shows up a lot when we split things into seven equal parts, like days of the week or colors in a rainbow.
The fraction 1/7 means one piece out of seven equal pieces. It’s a repeating decimal (0.142857…) but when we round it to two decimal places, it becomes the tidy 14.29% we often use in everyday calculations.
Because the value is under 20%, it’s useful for quick estimates. If you hear that something is about one‑seventh of a whole, you can think of it as roughly fourteen percent of that total.
