9/267 = ≈3.37%
Rounded to 2 decimal places.
A value like 9/267, or about 3.37%, can show up in everyday situations such as a small number of defective products in a large shipment. It might also describe a few students out of a school, customers out of a store’s visitors, or survey responses out of hundreds of people.
To picture 9/267 quickly, think of roughly 3 people out of every 100, with a little extra. It is a small share—about 1 out of 30 people—so you would expect only a few shaded items in a group of 100 or several dozen.
A common mistake is treating 9/267 as 9.267 or assuming it is close to 9%. The 9 is the part being counted, while 267 is the total, so the fraction represents much less than one-tenth.
