How to work it out

  1. Difference: 13 − 35 = -22
  2. Divide by the starting value: -22 ÷ 35 = -0.628571
  3. Multiply by 100: -62.8571%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 35 × (1 − 0.628571) = 35 × 0.371429 = 13.

In a spreadsheet: =(13-35)/35*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 37.1429% of the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 37.1429, so 62.8571 out of every 100 have gone.

Sales: a price cut from $35 to $13 is a 62.8571% discount.

Why the change back is different

A 62.8571% fall followed by a 62.8571% rise does not bring you back to 35: it gives 21.1714. The second percentage is taken of 13, not of 35, so to undo this change you need 169.2308% instead.
