To picture 72.9% quickly, imagine a group of 100 items with about 73 shaded or selected. It is a little less than three-quarters, since three-quarters is 75%.

A common mistake is to treat 72.9% as exactly three-quarters, even though it is slightly smaller. Another point of confusion is forgetting that the fraction is part-to-whole, so 772 is the selected or successful part and 1059 is the total.
