192/960 = 20%
A value like 192/960, or 20%, shows up in everyday situations such as a store discount, a test score, or a phone battery level. For example, a 20% discount means one-fifth of the original price is taken off.
You can picture 20% as 20 out of every 100, or about one section of a whole divided into five equal parts. It is also easy to estimate as “about one-fifth,” which can help you judge amounts quickly.
A common mistake is confusing 20% with 20 percentage points or with 0.20%—they are not the same. Another point of confusion is that a 20% discount does not mean the final price is zero; it leaves about four-fifths of the original amount.
