How to work it out

  1. Difference: 25 − 94 = -69
  2. Divide by the starting value: -69 ÷ 94 = -0.734043
  3. Multiply by 100: -73.4043%
  4. Check: Work forwards from the start: 94 × (1 − 0.734043) = 94 × 0.265957 = 25.

In a spreadsheet: =(25-94)/94*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 26.5957% of the old one: for every 100 at the start there are now 26.5957, so 73.4043 out of every 100 have gone.

Sales: a price cut from $94 to $25 is a 73.4043% discount.

Why the change back is different

A 73.4043% fall followed by a 73.4043% rise does not bring you back to 94: it gives 43.3511. The second percentage is taken of 25, not of 94, so to undo this change you need 276% instead.
