A value like 48/89 can show up in a survey, such as 48 people out of 89 choosing the same option. That’s 53.93%, so just over half of the group.

To picture it quickly, imagine splitting 89 people into two nearly equal groups. The 48 people make up a bit more than one of those halves, so the value is close to 54%.

One common mistake is to read the 48 as a percentage and assume the fraction means 48%. But the 48 counts part of the 89 total, so the whole group matters too.
