3/97 = ≈3.09%
Rounded to 2 decimal places.
A value like 3/97, or about 3.09%, can show up when only a small share of a group chooses a certain option. For example, it might describe a customer response, a rare event in a large survey, or a few defective products in a batch.
To picture it quickly, imagine 100 people standing in a room: about 3 of them would represent this amount. It is just a little more than 3%, so you can estimate it as roughly 3 out of every 100.
A common mistake is treating 3/97 as exactly 3%, even though its denominator is slightly less than 100. Because of that, the percentage is a little higher than 3%, not lower.
