How to work it out

  1. Difference: 11 − 43 = -32
  2. Divide by the starting value: -32 ÷ 43 = -0.744186
  3. Multiply by 100: -74.4186%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 43 × (1 − 0.744186) = 43 × 0.255814 = 11.

In a spreadsheet: =(11-43)/43*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 25.5814% of the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 25.5814, so 74.4186 out of every 100 have gone.

Sales: a price cut from $43 to $11 is a 74.4186% discount.

Why the change back is different

A 74.4186% fall followed by a 74.4186% rise does not bring you back to 43: it gives 19.186. The second percentage is taken of 11, not of 43, so to undo this change you need 290.9091% instead.
