A lattice point in an $xy$-coordinate system is any point $(x,y)$ where both $x$ and $y$ are integers. The graph of $y=mx+2$ passes through no lattice point with $0<x \le 100$ for all $m$ such that $\frac{1}{2}<m<a$. What is the maximum possible value of $a$? $ \textbf{(A)}\ \frac{51}{101} \qquad \textbf{(B)}\ \frac{50}{99} \qquad \textbf{(C)}\ \frac{51}{100} \qquad \textbf{(D)}\ \frac{52}{101} \qquad \textbf{(E)}\ \frac{13}{25} $
