How to work it out

  1. Gap between the values: |62 − 76| = 14
  2. Average of the values: (62 + 76) ÷ 2 = 69
  3. Divide the gap by the average and multiply by 100: 14 ÷ 69 × 100 = 20.2899%
  4. Check: Work backwards: 0.202899 × 69 = 14, the gap between the values.

In a spreadsheet: =ABS(62-76)/((62+76)/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

76 is 14 more than 62. Measured against their average, 69, that gap is 20.2899%. The result is the same whichever value you name first.

Prices: if one shop charges $62 and another $76 for the same item, the prices differ by 20.2899%.

Why the average is the base

Dividing the gap of 14 by 62 gives 22.5806%, and dividing it by 76 gives 18.4211%. The average, 69, sits between them, so the result does not depend on which value is listed first.
