How to work it out

  1. Gap between the values: |23 − 75| = 52
  2. Average of the values: (23 + 75) ÷ 2 = 49
  3. Divide the gap by the average and multiply by 100: 52 ÷ 49 × 100 = 106.1224%
  4. Check: Work backwards: 1.061224 × 49 = 52, the gap between the values.

In a spreadsheet: =ABS(23-75)/((23+75)/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

75 is 52 more than 23. Measured against their average, 49, that gap is 106.1224%. The result is the same whichever value you name first.

Prices: if one shop charges $23 and another $75 for the same item, the prices differ by 106.1224%.

Why the average is the base

Dividing the gap of 52 by 23 gives 226.087%, and dividing it by 75 gives 69.3333%. The average, 49, sits between them, so the result does not depend on which value is listed first.
