Percents larger than 100% do of course exist. However, it depends very much on the context. For example, if items in a store have 20% markup, they are selling for 120% of the cost price. However, if you're running an experiment to see for instance how much percent of a drug has been dissolved in solution, if you get over 100%, you know that something is wrong with the tablet, the method or the instrument
