A fraction like 478/526, or about 90.87%, could describe a school attendance rate, the share of products that pass inspection, or the percentage of survey participants who choose a certain answer. It represents a result that is very close to nine out of every ten.

To picture it quickly, imagine 100 squares with about 91 shaded in and 9 left blank. You can also estimate it as roughly 9 out of 10, while remembering that it is slightly higher than 90%.
