To picture it quickly, imagine a group of 100 objects with about 73 shaded or marked. Since 72.52% is a little below three-quarters, you can estimate it as “almost 75%” without treating it as exactly three-quarters.

A common point of confusion is assuming that 293/404 means 293 parts out of 100, when it actually compares 293 parts with a total of 404. Also, rounding to 72.52% makes the value easier to read, but it is only an approximation of the original fraction.
