A value of 6.67% might describe how many people in a small group prefer a certain snack, or how many items in a batch have a minor flaw. It’s a small share, but it can still matter when you’re making a decision.

To picture it quickly, think of about 7 out of every 100 things, or roughly 1 out of every 15. That makes it easier to see that 3 out of 45 is a little less than one in ten.

A common mix-up is treating 6.67% as exactly 7%, even when a small difference matters. Also, the percentage describes a share of the whole, not the number of items by itself.
