A value like 60/126, or about 47.62%, might describe how many students in a group turned in an assignment, how much of a survey group chose an option, or how often a bus arrived on time. It represents a little less than half of the total.

A common mistake is to treat 60/126 as exactly 50% because the numbers are close to half. It is slightly lower, and rounding it to 48% may be useful, but calling it 50% can hide an important difference in some situations.
