16/48 = ≈33.33%
Rounded to 2 decimal places.

To picture 16/48 quickly, think of 48 objects split into three equal groups of 16. It is close to one out of every three items, so estimating it as about 33% is usually enough.
A common mistake is thinking 16/48 is 16%, because people sometimes focus only on the top number. The bottom number matters too because it tells how large the whole group is.
