The fraction 6/108 represents a small share of a larger group, about 5.56%. For example, it could describe 6 defective products out of 108, 6 rainy days in a 108-day period, or 6 students in a group of 108.

To picture 6/108 quickly, imagine a group of about 100 items with only 5 or 6 highlighted. It is a little more than one-twentieth of the whole, so estimating it as around 5% to 6% makes sense.

A common mistake is to think the fraction is 6%, since the numerator is 6. The denominator matters just as much: six out of 108 is much smaller than six out of 100, and it would be far larger than six out of 1,000.
