A value like 1296/1596, or 81.2%, could describe the share of students who turn in an assignment on time. It might also represent the portion of products that pass a quality check or the percentage of a budget that has already been spent.

To picture 81.2% quickly, imagine a group of 100 items with about 81 shaded or selected. It is a little more than four-fifths, so you can estimate it as roughly 80% without needing an exact value.
