A number n is 150% of number m. Is m greater than less than or equal to m? Explain your reasonig

If n is 150% of number m that means n is greater than m because 150% would be doubling m and adding half of m together. Idk if that makes sense.

Example:

M=100

150% would be adding 1 1/2 of 100 together. Which is 100+150 which would be 250 so n would be 250 which is more than 100.
