'Double' is an English language Word that means multiply by '2'.
Another English language Word that means the same is 'twice'.
Casually , 200% means 'double/twice/multiply by '2' of 100%
However, in correct mathematics, there is no such number as 200% . 100% is totality.
If any value becomes greater than 100% , then it is multiplied by the given value of increase.
e.g. 125% (Ugh!!!!) means 100 x 1.25 = 125.
NB
Similarly ,
'Triple' means multiply by '3'.
The same as 'thrice' , which also means multiply by '3'.
There is no corresponding Word for '4' or greater'.
