Code challenge solution

What will be the right solution for the below mentioned code challenge?

Code challenge: In the .photo:hover .overlay rule, write a transform that will move the element up 100% from its original space.

My answer: .photo:hover .overlay { transform: translateY(100%); }

But, as per treehouse website, my above mentioned answer is wrong.

style.css 
/* overlay and img transitions ---------- */

.overlay,
img  {
    transition: transform .6s ease-out;
}

/* overlay and img transforms ---------- */

.photo:hover .overlay {
  transform: translateY(100%);
}
.photo:hover img {

}

To go up you need to use a negative number. So the value would be -100%.
