A fraction like 320/598 can show up when 320 people out of 598 answer “yes” to a survey, pass a test, or choose the same option. That is about 53.51%, so it represents a little more than half of the total.

A common mistake is to describe 320/598 as exactly half because the numbers are fairly close to a 1-to-2 ratio. It is not 50%, though; the extra 21 items above half make the value noticeably higher.
