How to work it out

  1. Difference: 52 − 35 = 17
  2. Divide by the starting value: 17 ÷ 35 = 0.485714
  3. Multiply by 100: 48.5714%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 35 × (1 + 0.485714) = 35 × 1.485714 = 52.

In a spreadsheet: =(52-35)/35*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 1.4857 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 148.5714.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $35 to $52 has gone up by 48.5714%.

Why the change back is different

A 48.5714% rise followed by a 48.5714% fall does not bring you back to 35: it gives 26.7429. The second percentage is taken of 52, not of 35, so to undo this change you need 32.6923% instead.
