A value like 20/89, or about 22.47%, could describe how often a bus arrives late across a set of trips or how many people in a survey chose a certain answer. It’s a little more than one out of every five.

To picture it quickly, imagine a group of 100 people: about 22 would fit this share, with a few more making it close to 23. That’s noticeably less than a quarter of the group.

One common point of confusion is treating 22.47% as exactly 22% or exactly one-fifth. Those are close estimates, but they’re not the same, especially when the value is used in a precise report.
