How to work it out

  1. Gap between the values: |19 − 62| = 43
  2. Average of the values: (19 + 62) ÷ 2 = 40.5
  3. Divide the gap by the average and multiply by 100: 43 ÷ 40.5 × 100 = 106.1728%
  4. Check: Work backwards: 1.061728 × 40.5 = 43, the gap between the values.

In a spreadsheet: =ABS(19-62)/((19+62)/2)*100. Dividing by one of the values instead of their average turns it into a percentage change, which depends on which value you start from.

What the result means

62 is 43 more than 19. Measured against their average, 40.5, that gap is 106.1728%. The result is the same whichever value you name first.

Prices: if one shop charges $19 and another $62 for the same item, the prices differ by 106.1728%.

Why the average is the base

Dividing the gap of 43 by 19 gives 226.3158%, and dividing it by 62 gives 69.3548%. The average, 40.5, sits between them, so the result does not depend on which value is listed first.
