What is a Percentage Variation?

A percentage variation is a measure of the ratio of the difference between two numbers compared with a benchmark or original number. In other words, it’s the ratio of the difference to the benchmark times 100.

Example Calculation

Let's consider an example:

Using the formula to calculate the Percentage Variation:

\[ PV = \left( \frac{120 - 100}{100} \right) \times 100 = 20 \% \]

This means that the percentage variation for this example is 20%.
