A value like 62/978, or about 6.34%, could describe the share of students in a school who participate in a particular club. It might also represent a small portion of products with a certain feature or customers who choose an uncommon option.

To picture 6.34% quickly, imagine a group of 100 people: about 6 or 7 of them would be included. It is a little more than one out of every 20, so it is noticeable but still a fairly small part of the whole.

A common mistake is to read 62/978 as 62%, since the numerator is 62. The denominator shows the total group, so the fraction describes 62 out of 978, not 62 out of 100.
