The formula, explained
Percentage difference uses the average of two values as its denominator, so swapping the values gives the same answer. The difference between 80 and 100 is about 22.22% of their average, 90.
Example inputs: first value 80; second value 100. Result: 22.2222 %.
What to check before using the result
Use percentage change when you have a before and after. Both inputs must be nonnegative and cannot both be zero. Different analytics counts can have different definitions, so a difference does not establish which tool is correct.
