A value like 46/98 could describe how many people in a group chose a certain option, such as 46 out of 98 students picking a favorite lunch. That’s just under 46.94%, so slightly fewer than half the group.

To picture it quickly, imagine splitting the group into two nearly equal halves. The value is close to 50%, but a little below it—about three people short of half in a group of 98.

A common point of confusion is treating “about half” as exactly half. Here, half of 98 would be 49, so 46 is a few people fewer, even though the fraction is still close to 50%.
