The fraction 297/978, or about 30.37%, could describe everyday situations such as the share of students who ride the bus, customers who choose a certain product, or survey respondents who support an idea. It means that roughly 3 out of every 10 people or items belong to that group.

To picture it quickly, imagine a circle divided into ten equal sections and shade about three of them. You can also estimate 30.37% as just over 30%, so it is a little less than one-third.

A common mistake is treating 30.37% as if it means 30.37 whole items or people. Percentages describe a portion of a total, so the actual number represented depends on how large the group is.
