If something has an increases by times two is it a 100% or 200%

>>8892880
Are you just reasking your retarded temperature question?

It increases in size by 100%. The object is now 200% of its original size.

Questions like these should go in the stupid questions thread.

if something stays the same, did it increase by 0% or 100%?

>>8892880
It is always 100%. You can't have something over 100%.

>>8892890
% doesn't work like that. It is the wrong term to express it.

Bravo, maths

It's 200%

It is now 3x the original value

Increase is always taken to mean additive

If something doubles then it increased by 100%. If it tripled then it increased by 200%.

200% literally means 200/100

50% = 0.5*X
100% = 1*X
200% = 2*X
105% = 1.05*X

Multiplied by 100% = X*1 = X
Stays the same

Increases by 100% = X+(X*1)= 2X
Doubles in size

This is elementary school math, get out of /sci/
