      Still no good

      I need a absolute score based on how close A1 is to B1.


      When A1=200 and B1=300 then C1 =?

      When A1=200 and B1=100 then C1 = ?

      Also

      When A1=20 and B1=30 then C1 =?

      When A1=20 and B1=10 then C1 = ?

      All four examples need to give the same value in C1




      Am I not explaining this very well?

        How does chaunk's solution not work?

        ABS(200-300)/ABS(200) = .5 (50%) [100/200]
        ABS(200-100)/ABS(200) = .5 (50%) [100/200]
        ABS(20-30)/ABS(20) = .5 (50%) [10/20]
        ABS(20-10)/ABS(20) = .5 (50%) [10/20]

        I think ABS(A1-B1)/ABS(A1) is correct. (The *100 is not needed if you format it as a %)

              If you need an excel file that does the above, let me know, as i've just created one ... but just entering above formula is all i did

                No, you're not...chaunk answered your question according to your description...although personally, rather than multiply by 100, I would just display the value as a percentage for that cell.
