How to work it out

  1. Difference: 32 − 93 = -61
  2. Divide by the starting value: -61 ÷ 93 = -0.655914
  3. Multiply by 100: -65.5914%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 93 × (1 − 0.655914) = 93 × 0.344086 = 32.

In a spreadsheet: =(32-93)/93*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 34.4086% of the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 34.4086, so 65.5914 out of every 100 have gone.

Sales: a price cut from $93 to $32 is a 65.5914% discount.

Why the change back is different

A 65.5914% fall followed by a 65.5914% rise does not bring you back to 93: it gives 52.9892. The second percentage is taken of 32, not of 93, so to undo this change you need 190.625% instead.
