A value like 271/714, or about 37.96%, could describe the share of students who ride the bus, customers who choose a certain product, or survey respondents who agree with an opinion. It is useful whenever a group is being divided into a part and a whole.
To picture it quickly, think of 38 out of every 100 items, or a little more than one-third of the group. On a pie chart, it would cover slightly less than two-fifths of the circle.
