How to work it out

  1. Difference: 82 − 39 = 43
  2. Divide by the starting value: 43 ÷ 39 = 1.102564
  3. Multiply by 100: 110.2564%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 39 × (1 + 1.102564) = 39 × 2.102564 = 82.

In a spreadsheet: =(82-39)/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 2.1026 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 210.2564. The value has more than doubled.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $39 to $82 has gone up by 110.2564%.

Why the change back is different

A 110.2564% rise followed by a 110.2564% fall does not bring you back to 39: it gives -8.4103. The second percentage is taken of 82, not of 39, so to undo this change you need 52.439% instead.
