How to work it out

  1. Difference: 100 − 52 = 48
  2. Divide by the starting value: 48 ÷ 52 = 0.923077
  3. Multiply by 100: 92.3077%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 52 × (1 + 0.923077) = 52 × 1.923077 = 100.

In a spreadsheet: =(100-52)/52*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 1.9231 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 192.3077.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $52 to $100 has gone up by 92.3077%.

Why the change back is different

A 92.3077% rise followed by a 92.3077% fall does not bring you back to 52: it gives 7.6923. The second percentage is taken of 100, not of 52, so to undo this change you need 48% instead.
