48/485 = ≈9.9%
Rounded to 2 decimal places.
A fraction like 48/485 could describe a survey where 48 out of 485 people choose a certain answer. That is about 9.9%, so it might represent roughly one in ten customers, students, or voters.
To picture 48/485 quickly, imagine dividing a group of about 500 people into ten nearly equal parts. Forty-eight people would make up just about one of those parts, which helps you estimate the fraction as close to one-tenth.
A common mistake is to round 9.9% up to 10% and then treat it as exact. The difference is small for a quick estimate, but it can matter when the total number of people or items is large.
