How to work it out

  1. Difference: 19 − 9 = 10
  2. Divide by the starting value: 10 ÷ 9 = 1.111111
  3. Multiply by 100: 111.1111%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 9 × (1 + 1.111111) = 9 × 2.111111 = 19.

In a spreadsheet: =(19-9)/9*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 2.1111 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 211.1111. The value has more than doubled.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $9 to $19 has gone up by 111.1111%.

Why the change back is different

A 111.1111% rise followed by a 111.1111% fall does not bring you back to 9: it gives -2.1111. The second percentage is taken of 19, not of 9, so to undo this change you need 52.6316% instead.
