A value like 248/246 can show up when something is slightly above its original target, such as a store selling 248 items after expecting 246. It represents about 100.81%, so the result is just a little more than the full amount.

To picture it quickly, think of 246 as one complete group and 248 as that same group plus 2 extra items. Since 2 is small compared with 246, you can estimate the fraction as just over 100%, or roughly 101%.

A common mistake is treating 248/246 as if it were below 100% because the numbers look close together. The numerator is actually larger than the denominator, so the fraction must be greater than 1 and the percentage must be above 100%.
