A value of 4.11% might describe the share of people in a small survey who chose a certain option, or the fraction of items in a batch that had a flaw. It’s a small portion, but it can still matter when the group is large.

To picture it quickly, imagine a grid of 100 squares with about four shaded in. It’s also close to one person out of every 24, so you can think of it as a little more than 4 out of 100.

One common mix-up is to read 3/73 as 3%, since the top number is 3. The bottom number matters too, so this fraction is a bit higher than 4%, not 3%.
