A value like 2/82, or about 2.44%, might describe a small share of people in a group who choose a certain option. You could also see a percentage this size in a survey or when tracking a rare event.

To picture it quickly, think of roughly 2 or 3 people out of every 100. It’s a small slice, but not so tiny that it would be hard to notice in a large group.

One common mix-up is reading 2.44% as 2.44 out of 10, rather than 2.44 out of 100. It can also be easy to assume the share is exactly 2.44%, even though that percentage is rounded.
