If n = m

n must be 100% of m
m must be 100% of n

As 150 is greater than 100, n is greater than m.
\(\rightarrow As \ 150 >100, \ \ \ \ n > m\)

\(p\%=\frac{p}{100}\\\\150\%=\frac{150}{100}=1.5\\-----------------------\\If\ "n"\ is\ 150\%\ of\ number\ "m"\ then\ n=1.5m\\\ \ ?\ m\\\\1.5m\ ?\ m\to 1.5m > m\\\\therefore\ \boxed{n > m}\)
