A value like 491/594, or about 82.66%, can show up when 491 out of 594 people complete a survey, students pass a test, or items in a shipment arrive on time. It represents a large majority, though not everyone is included.

To picture it quickly, imagine a group of 100 items: about 83 would fit the fraction, while about 17 would not. On a progress bar, it would look a little more than four-fifths complete.
