15/31 = ≈48.39%
Rounded to 2 decimal places.
A value like 15/31, or about 48.39%, might describe how often a bus arrives on time, how many people in a group prefer a certain snack, or what share of a phone’s battery remains. It is a little less than half, so it can be useful when comparing amounts that are close to an even split.
To picture it quickly, imagine 31 equal squares with 15 shaded. Almost half would be shaded, but one more square would make 16 out of 31, which is just over half.
One common point of confusion is treating 15/31 as exactly one-half because it is close. It is slightly less than half, and rounding it to 48% or roughly 50% may be fine for a quick estimate but not for a precise comparison.
