One is a number, the other is a percentage of said number added on top.

When looking at the stats screen and the mods, they both show as a percentage.

Skill Power
Affects how much damage is inflicted by the Descendant's abilities. Reactor is the main source of Skill Power and increased by Modules. Every Skill has an attribute (like Electric) and Arche type (like Tech) associated with it. Only Skill Power of the matching type will affect the skill's damage. Different sources of Skill Power stack multiplicatively.

Skill Power Modifier
Determines how much Skill Power contributes to specific ability's damage. In the Skill description like Skill Power x 27%, the number 27% is the Skill Power Modifier. Skill Power Modifier is increased by Modules and added to the skill's base modifier. Only Skill Power Modifier of the matching type will affect the skill's damage.

Maximization tip: Because Skill Power Modifier is additive, it is much more effective for abilities with low base modifier. For abilities with less than Skill Power x 100%, 1 point of Skill Power Modifier is worth more than 1 point of Skill Power.

Your skillpower (shown on your character screen at the bottom next to the external components) is a number, not a percentage.

I'm sure you know this but you worded it a bit weird so just in case someone's confused: Hovering over the skill on the left in the modules tab usually shows something like "Damage -> Skillpower x modifier%" where said modifier% is essentially a base static value differing from ability to ability + whatever added value you got from slotted modules that increases said modifier. The Skillpower in the first part of that equation is the value seen in the character sheet at the bottom.
