42/302 = ≈13.91%
Rounded to 2 decimal places.
A fraction like 42/302 can show up in everyday life when 42 people out of a group of 302 choose the same option in a survey. That share is about 13.91%, so it could describe things like the portion of students who walk to school or customers who prefer a certain product.
To picture 42/302 quickly, think of it as a little less than 1 out of every 7 people. Since 10% would be about 30 people in a group of 302, 42 people is noticeably higher than one-tenth but still far below one-quarter.
A common mistake is to read 42/302 as 42% because the numerator is 42. The denominator matters just as much: 42 out of 302 represents a much smaller portion than 42 out of 100.
