How to work it out

  1. Difference: 97 − 35 = 62
  2. Divide by the starting value: 62 ÷ 35 = 1.771429
  3. Multiply by 100: 177.1429%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 35 × (1 + 1.771429) = 35 × 2.771429 = 97.

In a spreadsheet: =(97-35)/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 2.7714 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 277.1429. The value has more than doubled.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $35 to $97 has gone up by 177.1429%.

Why the change back is different

A 177.1429% rise followed by a 177.1429% fall does not bring you back to 35: it gives -74.8286. The second percentage is taken of 97, not of 35, so to undo this change you need 63.9175% instead.
