Only agree with the first statement. Firstly, you cannot simply add up the total increase in percentage just like what the student did.
26.2%+99.1%≠151%
Additionally, when you want to compare the increase in %, you always take the [difference between the two years divide by the initial value] multiply by 100%. Always divide by the initial value that you can comparing to.
