A fraction like 73/358 can show up when 73 people out of 358 surveyed choose the same answer. For example, it might describe the share of students who ride the bus, customers who prefer a product, or households that use a certain service—about 20.39%.
To picture 73/358 quickly, imagine dividing a group of 358 into five roughly equal parts. Since 73 is close to one-fifth of 358, the fraction is a little more than 20%, or about 1 out of every 5 people.
