A value like 22/81, or about 27.16%, might describe how many students in a class ride the bus or how often a certain snack is chosen in a survey. It represents a little more than one out of every four people or items.

To picture it quickly, imagine 100 squares with about 27 shaded in, or think of slightly more than a quarter of a pizza. Since a quarter is 25%, this amount is just a bit larger.
