18/324 = ≈5.56%
Rounded to 2 decimal places.
A fraction like 18/324 can show up when 18 items out of a group of 324 meet a certain condition. For example, it could represent defective products in a shipment, students who choose a particular option, or customers who report a problem; that is about 5.56%.
To picture 18/324 quickly, imagine 100 equal items and think of about 6 of them being selected. It is a small portion—more than 1 in 20, but much less than 1 in 10.
A common mistake is to treat 18/324 as 18% because the numerator is 18. The denominator matters just as much, since it tells you the total group is 324 rather than 100.
