A value like 25/85, or about 29.41%, might describe how many students in a class prefer a certain lunch option or how many items in a box are a particular color. It’s a little less than one-third of the whole.

To picture it quickly, imagine a group of 100 things: about 29 would have that feature. Since one-third is about 33%, this amount is a bit smaller than one-third.

A common mix-up is to treat 25/85 as though it were 25% because the top number is 25. The 25 is only the counted part; the full group is 85.
