Defense refers to armor and resistance collectively.
The percentage for armor is not additive. As Kyno mentioned, you can google calculators that will solve it for you. But basically, the percentage that is displayed in the stats is the amount of damage that will be mitigated (not taking into account opponent's defense penetration). There is an invisible defense flat stat that is used to calculate this percentage based on level. When a mod (or in game status effect) says it adds +25% defense, it adds 25% of that flat stat. This does NOT translate to an increase of 25% damage mitigation, which is why the stat says only +7.5% from mods.
