Question

What kind of fraction will you have when the percent is over 100%

Answer 1

100% means “100 out of 100” — in other words, everything. So when you say you have 100% confidence in someone, you mean that you have complete confidence in them. But a lot of times, percentages larger than 100% are perfectly reasonable.!

Answer 2

"Improper Fraction"

Explanation:

An improper fraction is a fraction where the numerator exceeds the denominator. When the percent is over 100%, then technically the numerator is exceeding the denominator when the percentage is converted to a fraction.

Example:

• 110%
• convert to fraction...
  `(110)/(100)`
• simplify...
  `(11)/(10)`

You can go further by making it a proper fraction but that is beyond the current problem we are solving.
