A value like 96/101, or about 95.05%, can show up in everyday life when almost all items meet a goal. For example, a school might report that 96 out of 101 students submitted an assignment, or a product could pass inspection in 96 of 101 cases.

To picture it quickly, imagine a group of 100 items with about 95 marked complete or successful. Since 96/101 is just a little less than 96/100, you can estimate it as roughly 95% to 96%.

A common mistake is treating 96/101 as exactly 96%, even though the denominator is 101 rather than 100. Another point of confusion is that 95.05% means slightly more than 95%, not 95.05 percentage points added to something else.
