A value like 83/740, or about 11.22%, could describe the share of students in a school who ride the bus, customers who choose a certain product, or bills that are paid late. It represents a noticeable minority, but not close to half of the group.

To picture it quickly, imagine dividing 100 people into groups: about 11 of them would represent this amount. You can also think of it as a little more than one out of every ten, since 10% is one-tenth.

A common mistake is to treat 11.22% as 11.22 whole people or items when describing a real group. Percentages describe a portion of a group, so the actual number of people or objects must be a whole number, even if the percentage is written with decimals.
