A fraction like 950/985 could show up when 950 out of 985 students submit a permission form, or when 950 items out of 985 pass a quality check. That is a very high rate, about 96.45%, so only a small number did not meet the goal.

To picture it quickly, imagine a group of 100 people: about 96 or 97 would be included, while only 3 or 4 would be left out. Since the numerator is close to the denominator, the fraction is just a little less than the whole amount.

A common mistake is to treat 950/985 as exactly 100% because the two numbers are so close. It is not perfect, though; the difference of 35 represents the portion that is missing or unsuccessful.
