A value like 98/279, or about 35.13%, could describe the share of students who walk to school, customers who choose a certain product, or tasks completed in a work project. It shows up whenever you compare one part with a larger total.

To picture it quickly, imagine a group of 100 items: about 35 of them would fit this fraction. It is a little more than one-third, since one-third is about 33.3%.
