The way I find percentages is: To find 17% I:
Find 10 percent, Then half the 10 percent, to get 5 percent which makes 15%.
Then find a 5th of the 5 % and double it to make 17%
17% of 200 = 34. (If you mean that an increase of 200 represents 17% then you started with 1176.5)
I work it out as:100 increased by 17% is 117100 increased by 15% is 115117 is 2 greater than 115 = 2/115 * 100 = a 1.739% (3 decimal places only) increase. We could say that it is roughly 1.01739 times as big if this is what you mean.
An 800 percent increase.

It is an increase of 8.88... percent (also an increase of 8 percentage points).
