15/31 = ≈48.39%
Rounded to 2 decimal places.
A value like 15/31, or about 48.39%, could describe how often a basketball player makes a certain shot, how many days someone completes a habit, or the share of students who choose a particular option. It represents a little less than half of the total.
To picture it quickly, imagine splitting 31 objects into two nearly equal groups. Since 15 is one less than half of 31, 15/31 is just under 50%, or slightly less than 1 out of every 2.
A common mistake is to round 15/31 to 50% and then treat it as exactly half. That small difference matters when the fraction is used repeatedly or when accurate results are important.
