To picture it quickly, imagine a group of 100 items: about 92 would meet the goal, while roughly 8 would not. You can also think of 279/304 as just a little less than 300/300, or 100%, because only 25 items are missing from a perfect result.

A common mistake is to call 91.78% “about 90%” and forget that the extra nearly 2 percentage points can matter in large groups. It is also important to remember that 279/304 is not exactly 91.78%; the percentage is a rounded estimate.
