How to work it out

  1. Difference: 92 − 33 = 59
  2. Divide by the starting value: 59 ÷ 33 = 1.787879
  3. Multiply by 100: 178.7879%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 33 × (1 + 1.787879) = 33 × 2.787879 = 92.

In a spreadsheet: =(92-33)/33*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 2.7879 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 278.7879. The value has more than doubled.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $33 to $92 has gone up by 178.7879%.

Why the change back is different

A 178.7879% rise followed by a 178.7879% fall does not bring you back to 33: it gives -72.4848. The second percentage is taken of 92, not of 33, so to undo this change you need 64.1304% instead.
