A value like 165/164 can show up when something is just slightly more than a full amount, such as a store selling 1.0061 times its usual number of items or a runner finishing a course a tiny bit over the expected distance. It represents about 100.61%, so the amount is barely above the original whole.

To picture it quickly, imagine one complete glass of water plus a very small splash more. Since 165/164 is only 1 greater in the numerator than the denominator, you can estimate it as 100% with a little extra, rather than thinking of it as much larger than one whole.

A common mistake is to treat 100.61% as if it were 0.61% because the decimal part looks small. The full percentage includes the original 100%, while 0.61% describes only how much extra there is beyond the starting amount.
