TeilGanzVerhältnisse

TeilGanzVerhältnis is a term used in German-language mathematics and statistics to describe the ratio of a subset or part (Teil) to the whole (Ganz) within a given universe. It is commonly used to express how large a part is relative to the total, and can be written as a fraction, decimal, or percentage.

Formal definition: In a finite set W with size |W| > 0 and a subset T ⊆ W with

Examples: If a class of 100 students has 25 enrolled in a club, the TeilGanzVerhältnis for the

Relation to other concepts: It is closely related to fractions, proportions and percentages, and in probability,
