How to work it out

  1. Difference: 43 − 11 = 32
  2. Divide by the starting value: 32 ÷ 11 = 2.909091
  3. Multiply by 100: 290.9091%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 11 × (1 + 2.909091) = 11 × 3.909091 = 43.

In a spreadsheet: =(43-11)/11*100. Always divide by the starting value, not the new one. A rise from 40 to 50 is +25%, but the fall from 50 back to 40 is −20%.

What the result means

The new value is 3.9091 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 390.9091. The value has more than doubled.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $11 to $43 has gone up by 290.9091%.

Why the change back is different

A 290.9091% rise followed by a 290.9091% fall does not bring you back to 11: it gives -82.0909. The second percentage is taken of 43, not of 11, so to undo this change you need 74.4186% instead.
