A value like 20/88, or about 22.73%, could describe how many students in a school club are in one grade level. It might also represent the share of items in a store that are on sale or the portion of a survey group choosing one answer.

To picture it quickly, imagine a group of 100 people: about 23 of them would fit this proportion. It is a little less than one-fourth, since one-fourth is 25%.

A common mistake is treating 22.73% as if it were 22.73 people when talking about a group. Percentages describe a share, so the actual number of people or objects must still be a whole number.
