A value like 138/164, or about 84.15%, could describe a school attendance rate, the share of survey responses that support an idea, or the percentage of a project that is finished. It means a little more than four-fifths of the total, so it represents a strong majority.

To picture it quickly, imagine 164 objects divided into five roughly equal groups. About 138 of them would be included, leaving around 26 outside the group, which makes the value look close to 85%.

A common mistake is to treat 84.15% as if it were the same as 84.15, even though a percentage means a part out of 100. It is also easy to assume the fraction is exactly 85%, but 84.15% is slightly lower.
