The percentage increase (or decrease) from "a" to "b" is:((b - a) / a) x 100

Equivalent to:

(b/a - 1) x 100

In other words, you calculate the difference between the two values, and compare with the first one.

How do you find the length if you have the coordinates and the midpoint?

To work out the length, you need the coordinates of both endpoints. If you have one endpoint and the midpoint, you can treat this as two endpoints and then double the answer you get to calculating the length. To calculate the length, work out the difference in x axis values and difference in y axis values. You then find the square root of (x2+y2). This is the length between the two coordinates.
