A value like 721/720 can show up when something is just slightly above a target or expected amount. For example, a machine might produce 721 items when the goal was 720, or a bill could be a tiny bit higher than its original estimate at 100.14%.

To picture it quickly, think of one whole pizza plus a very small extra slice. Since the fraction is only 1 part greater than a full 720 parts, it is extremely close to 100%, just barely over.

A common mistake is to treat 100.14% as if it were 14% or 1.14 times the original amount. It means 100% plus 0.14%, so the increase is small rather than dramatic.
