  • Paper

A lattice point in an xyxy-coordinate system is any point (x,y)(x, y) where both xx and yy are integers. The graph of y=mx+2y = mx + 2 passes through no lattice point with 0<x≤1000 < x \leq 100 for all mm such that 12<m<a\frac{1}{2} < m < a. What is the maximum possible value of aa?

\textbf{(A)}\ \frac{51}{101} \textbf{(B)}\ \frac{50}{99} \textbf{(C)}\ \frac{51}{100} \textbf{(D)}\ \frac{52}{101} \textbf{(E)}\ \frac{13}{25}
