Rounded to 2 decimal places.
A value like 747/898, or about 83.18%, can show up when 747 out of 898 people complete a survey, pass a test, or attend an event. It means a little more than four out of every five people are included.
To picture it quickly, imagine a group of 100 objects with about 83 colored in. You can also estimate it as roughly 80%, then notice that it is a few points higher.
A common mistake is to read 83.18% as 83.18 people, even though percentages describe a portion of a whole. The actual number of people or items must be a whole number, while the percentage can use decimals to describe the group more precisely.
