A value like 6/747, or about 0.8%, might show up when only a few items in a large shipment are damaged. It could also describe a small error rate, such as 6 incorrect records out of 747 total records.

To picture 0.8% quickly, think of fewer than 1 person in every 100, or about 8 people in every 1,000. Since 6 is much smaller than 747, the fraction is clearly well below 1%.

A common mistake is to treat 6/747 as if it were 6%, just because the numerator is 6. The denominator matters just as much, because it represents the entire group being measured.
