To picture it quickly, imagine a strip divided into 10 equal parts: about 6 of those parts would be shaded, with a little extra beyond them. Since 101/163 is close to 60%, you can estimate it as roughly three-fifths without needing the exact percentage.

A common mistake is to round 61.96% to 62% and then treat it as exactly 62%, even though the original fraction may be more precise. It is also easy to confuse the numerator and denominator; 101 out of 163 is not the same as 163 out of 101.
