A value like 37/88, or about 42.05%, could describe the share of students who chose a certain lunch option or the portion of a battery that remains. It shows up whenever you compare part of a group or amount with the whole.

To picture it quickly, think of a little less than half. If a whole is split into 100 equal parts, the value covers about 42 of them, leaving a bit more than half uncovered.

One common confusion is reading 42.05% as 42.05 out of 10 rather than out of 100. Also, 37/88 is not exactly 42.05%; that percentage is a rounded estimate.
