A value like 66/79, or 83.54%, might describe how many questions someone got right on a quiz or how much of a task is finished. It could also show the share of people who chose a certain option in a survey.

To picture it quickly, imagine a grid of 100 squares with about 84 shaded. It’s a little more than four-fifths of the whole, so most of the grid is shaded, but a small part is not.

One common mix-up is confusing the 66 with a percent and saying the value is 66%. The 66 is the number of parts counted, while 79 is the total number of parts.
