A value like 28/58, or 48.28%, could show up in a class poll, such as the share of students who prefer a certain lunch option. It tells you that a little less than half of the people chose it.

To picture it quickly, think of 100 squares with about 48 shaded in. That’s close to half, but just a bit less.

A common point of confusion is calling it exactly half. Half of 58 would be 29, so 28 out of 58 falls slightly below that mark.
