How to Calculate Percentage Difference

Understanding how to find percentage difference is important for making accurate comparisons. The percentage difference formula measures the relative difference between two values compared to their average:

Percentage Difference = (|Value 1 - Value 2| ÷ ((Value 1 + Value 2) ÷ 2)) × 100

Example Calculation:

Value 1 = 80

Value 2 = 100

Percentage Difference = (|80 - 100| ÷ ((80 + 100) ÷ 2)) × 100

= (20 ÷ 90) × 100

= 0.222... × 100

= 22.22%

The percentage difference is 22.22%, indicating how far apart the two values are relative to their average.
