A value like 30/51, or 58.82%, could describe how many students in a class prefer a certain lunch option or how often a team wins its games. It’s a little more than half, so it can show a narrow majority.

To picture it quickly, imagine 100 equal parts: about 59 would be shaded and 41 would not. You can also think of it as just under three-fifths.

A common mistake is to call it exactly 60% because it’s close to three-fifths. That’s a handy estimate, but it’s not exact, especially when small differences matter.
