To picture it quickly, imagine 100 equal squares with about 59 shaded in. You can also think of it as roughly 6 out of every 10 items, since it is close to 60% but slightly lower.

A common mistake is treating 59.1% as if it means 59.1 whole items. Percentages describe a portion of a total, so the actual number of items depends on how many items are in the group.
