How to work it out

  1. Gap between the values: |30 − 100| = 70
  2. Average of the values: (30 + 100) ÷ 2 = 65
  3. Divide the gap by the average and multiply by 100: 70 ÷ 65 × 100 = 107.6923%
  4. Check: Work backwards: 1.076923 × 65 = 70, the gap between the values.

In a spreadsheet: =ABS(30-100)/((30+100)/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

100 is 70 more than 30. Measured against their average, 65, that gap is 107.6923%. The result is the same whichever value you name first.

Prices: if one shop charges $30 and another $100 for the same item, the prices differ by 107.6923%.

Why the average is the base

Dividing the gap of 70 by 30 gives 233.3333%, and dividing it by 100 gives 70%. The average, 65, sits between them, so the result does not depend on which value is listed first.
