A value like 9/91, or about 9.89%, can show up when roughly 9 or 10 people out of every 100 share a certain trait. For example, it could describe a small portion of students choosing a particular lunch, customers selecting one product, or survey respondents giving the same answer.

You can picture 9/91 as just a little less than one person out of ten. On a chart with 100 squares, shade about 10 squares, or imagine filling one section of a group of ten and leaving it slightly short.

A common mistake is treating 9/91 as exactly 10% instead of recognizing that it is slightly lower. Another point of confusion is thinking the 9 and 91 are both percentages; the fraction describes 9 parts out of a total of 91 parts.
