How to work it out

  1. Difference: 35 − 10 = 25
  2. Divide by the starting value: 25 ÷ 10 = 2.5
  3. Multiply by 100: 250%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 10 × (1 + 2.5) = 10 × 3.5 = 35.

In a spreadsheet: =(35-10)/10*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 3.5 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 350. The value has more than doubled.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $10 to $35 has gone up by 250%.

Why the change back is different

A 250% rise followed by a 250% fall does not bring you back to 10: it gives -52.5. The second percentage is taken of 35, not of 10, so to undo this change you need 71.4286% instead.
