How to work it out

  1. Difference: 64 − 39 = 25
  2. Divide by the starting value: 25 ÷ 39 = 0.641026
  3. Multiply by 100: 64.1026%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 39 × (1 + 0.641026) = 39 × 1.641026 = 64.

In a spreadsheet: =(64-39)/39*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 1.641 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 164.1026.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $39 to $64 has gone up by 64.1026%.

Why the change back is different

A 64.1026% rise followed by a 64.1026% fall does not bring you back to 39: it gives 22.9744. The second percentage is taken of 64, not of 39, so to undo this change you need 39.0625% instead.
