A fraction like 6/267 can describe a small share of a larger group, such as 6 defective items in a shipment of 267 or 6 students out of 267 choosing a certain option. That share is about 2.25%, so it represents something that happens only occasionally.

To picture 6/267 quickly, imagine splitting a group of about 267 people into 100 equal parts and shading just a little more than two of those parts. Since 2.25% is close to 2%, you can estimate it as roughly 2 people out of every 100.

A common mistake is to think 6/267 is close to 6%, because the numerator is 6. The denominator matters just as much: six out of a few hundred is much smaller than six out of one hundred.
