How to work it out

  1. Difference: 58 − 9 = 49
  2. Divide by the starting value: 49 ÷ 9 = 5.444444
  3. Multiply by 100: 544.4444%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 9 × (1 + 5.444444) = 9 × 6.444444 = 58.

In a spreadsheet: =(58-9)/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 6.4444 times the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 644.4444. The value has more than doubled.

Prices: an item whose price rises from $9 to $58 has gone up by 544.4444%.

Why the change back is different

A 544.4444% rise followed by a 544.4444% fall does not bring you back to 9: it gives -257.7778. The second percentage is taken of 58, not of 9, so to undo this change you need 84.4828% instead.
