How to work it out

  1. Gap between the values: |57 − 65| = 8
  2. Average of the values: (57 + 65) ÷ 2 = 61
  3. Divide the gap by the average and multiply by 100: 8 ÷ 61 × 100 = 13.1148%
  4. Check: Work backwards: 0.131148 × 61 = 8, the gap between the values.

In a spreadsheet: =ABS(57-65)/((57+65)/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

65 is 8 more than 57. Measured against their average, 61, that gap is 13.1148%. The result is the same whichever value you name first.

Prices: if one shop charges $57 and another $65 for the same item, the prices differ by 13.1148%.

Why the average is the base

Dividing the gap of 8 by 57 gives 14.0351%, and dividing it by 65 gives 12.3077%. The average, 61, sits between them, so the result does not depend on which value is listed first.
