How to work it out

  1. Gap between the values: |75 − 95| = 20
  2. Average of the values: (75 + 95) ÷ 2 = 85
  3. Divide the gap by the average and multiply by 100: 20 ÷ 85 × 100 = 23.5294%
  4. Check: Work backwards: 0.235294 × 85 = 20, the gap between the values.

In a spreadsheet: =ABS(75-95)/((75+95)/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

95 is 20 more than 75. Measured against their average, 85, that gap is 23.5294%. The result is the same whichever value you name first.

Prices: if one shop charges $75 and another $95 for the same item, the prices differ by 23.5294%.

Why the average is the base

Dividing the gap of 20 by 75 gives 26.6667%, and dividing it by 95 gives 21.0526%. The average, 85, sits between them, so the result does not depend on which value is listed first.
