Class 8 Maths: Fractions in Disguise | Percentages more than 100% & Figure It Out (Page 12)

In this session, we continue with Class 8 Mathematics: Fractions in Disguise (NCERT / NEP Curriculum). ​We explore the core concept of Percentages Greater Than 100%, understanding how improper fractions translate into percentages above 100% and decimals greater than 1. Then, we solve the "Figure It Out" section from Page 12 (Questions 1 to 3) using mental estimation, bar model visualizations, and Vedic arithmetic tricks! ​⏱️ Timestamps ​[00:00] Introduction: Fractions and Percentages ​[01:16] Can Percentages be Greater Than 100%?
