To picture it quickly, imagine dividing a group into five equal parts and shading about one part. Since 20% is exactly one-fifth, 20.03% is just slightly more than that, so 149 out of 744 is close to 1 in every 5 items.

A common mistake is to treat 20.03% as 20.3%, which is noticeably larger. The extra zero matters: 20.03% is only 0.03 percentage points above 20%, while 20.3% is 0.3 percentage points above it.
