Absolute increase is (1.00 - 0.92) units
The relative increase = (0.08) units / 0.92 units = 0.087 = 8.7%
The relative increase = percental increase = 8.7%. That's it.

percent change=final mass*100/initial mass
=1.00*100/.92
=100/.92
=100*100/.92*100
=100*100/92
=10,000/92
=108.695652(approximately)(till 6 decimal places)
=108.69565 (till 5 decimal places)
=108.6957 (till 4 decimal places)
=108.696 (till 3 decimal places)
=108.70 (till 2 decimal places)
=108.7 (till 1 decimal place)
=109 (rounding it off to whole number)
that was a very simple calculation

0.92 times what percentage gives 1.00?

In numbers:
0.92 * x/100 = 1.00

Divide both sides by 0.92:
x/100 = 1.00 / 0.92

Multiply both sides by 100:
x = 1.00 / 0.92 * 100

Calculate x:
x = 108.695652
x ≈ 108.7%

Or if you round to the nearest percentage:
x ≈ 109%

As a double check:
0.92 * 109% = 1.00 (to three significant digits).
