Rounded to 2 decimal places.
A value like 38/46, or about 82.61%, could describe 38 successful shots out of 46 attempts, 38 students completing an assignment, or 38 items passing a quality check. It shows that most of the group met the goal, even though a few did not.
To picture it quickly, imagine a row of 46 boxes with 38 shaded in, leaving only 8 unshaded. You can also estimate it as a little more than four-fifths, since four-fifths is 80%.
