How to work it out

  1. Difference: 62 − 13 = 49
  2. Divide by the starting value: 49 ÷ 13 = 3.769231
  3. Multiply by 100: 376.9231%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 13 × (1 + 3.769231) = 13 × 4.769231 = 62.

In a spreadsheet: =(62-13)/13*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 4.7692 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 476.9231. The value has more than doubled.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $13 to $62 has gone up by 376.9231%.

Why the change back is different

A 376.9231% rise followed by a 376.9231% fall does not bring you back to 13: it gives -171.6923. The second percentage is taken of 62, not of 13, so to undo this change you need 79.0323% instead.
