How to work it out

  1. Difference: 44 − 93 = -49
  2. Divide by the starting value: -49 ÷ 93 = -0.526882
  3. Multiply by 100: -52.6882%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 93 × (1 − 0.526882) = 93 × 0.473118 = 44.

In a spreadsheet: =(44-93)/93*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 47.3118% of the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 47.3118, so 52.6882 out of every 100 have gone.

Sales: a price cut from $93 to $44 is a 52.6882% discount.

Why the change back is different

A 52.6882% fall followed by a 52.6882% rise does not bring you back to 93: it gives 67.1828. The second percentage is taken of 44, not of 93, so to undo this change you need 111.3636% instead.
