Answer: 200% increase

Explanation:

Being an increase from 12inches to 36inches, we will calculate the percentage increase.

%increase = final length -initial length/initial length × 100%

Initial length = 12inches

Final length = 36inches

%increase = 36-12/12 × 100%

%increase = 24/12 × 100%

%increase = 200%
