How to work it out

  1. Difference: 19 − 65 = -46
  2. Divide by the starting value: -46 ÷ 65 = -0.707692
  3. Multiply by 100: -70.7692%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 65 × (1 − 0.707692) = 65 × 0.292308 = 19.

In a spreadsheet: =(19-65)/65*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 29.2308% of the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 29.2308, so 70.7692 out of every 100 have gone.

Sales: a price cut from $65 to $19 is a 70.7692% discount.

Why the change back is different

A 70.7692% fall followed by a 70.7692% rise does not bring you back to 65: it gives 32.4462. The second percentage is taken of 19, not of 65, so to undo this change you need 242.1053% instead.
