A value like 147/713, or about 20.62%, might show up when roughly one-fifth of a group chooses a certain option in a survey. It could also describe the share of students who walk to school, customers who use a discount, or items in a store that are on sale.

To picture it quickly, imagine dividing a group into five nearly equal parts and shading about one of those parts. Since 20.62% is a little more than 20%, it is just slightly larger than one-fifth.

A common mistake is treating 20.62% as if it were 20.62 rather than a portion of a whole. It is also easy to assume the fraction is exactly one-fifth, even though 147/713 is slightly greater than that.
