A value like 56/66, or about 84.85%, could describe a class where 56 out of 66 students turned in an assignment. It might also represent the share of people who completed a survey, passed a test, or arrived on time.

To picture it quickly, imagine 66 small squares with 56 shaded in. That is a little less than five-sixths, so you can estimate it as roughly 85 out of every 100.
