15/55 = ≈27.27%
Rounded to 2 decimal places.
A fraction like 15/55, or 27.27%, could describe how many students in a class take the bus or how many people at a survey chose one option. It’s a little more than one person out of every four.
To picture it quickly, imagine 100 small squares: about 27 would be shaded. You can also think of it as just over a quarter, since a quarter is 25%.
A common mix-up is to call 27.27% exactly a quarter, when it’s slightly higher. Also, 15/55 may look less familiar than a fraction with 100 on the bottom, but it represents the same share as the percentage.
