A value like 13/21, or about 61.9%, could describe how many students in a class prefer a certain lunch option or how often a bus arrives on time. It’s a little more than three-fifths, so it represents a clear majority.

To picture it quickly, imagine 21 equal items with 13 shaded or selected. You can also think of it as about 62 out of every 100, which is just over three-fifths of a whole.

One common point of confusion is treating 61.9% as nearly two-thirds. Two-thirds is about 66.7%, so 61.9% is somewhat less than that.
