To picture 115/162 quickly, imagine a progress bar that is a little more than two-thirds full but not quite three-quarters full. Since 70.99% is close to 71%, you can estimate it as about 71 out of every 100.

A common mistake is to call this fraction “about 70%” and forget that the exact percentage is slightly higher. Another point of confusion is assuming that 115/162 is close to one-half just because both numbers are fairly large; the numerator is actually well above half of the denominator.
