A value like 5/77, or about 6.49%, might describe how often a small event happens in a survey or what share of a group chose a certain option. It’s a little under 7 out of every 100.

To picture it quickly, imagine 100 dots and shade about 6 or 7 of them. Since 6.49% is closer to 6% than 7%, shading a bit less than 7 dots gives a good estimate.
