If I divide two negative numeric cells and put the result into a
percentage cell, it will positive, even if the change is negative. For
example:

A B
1 -6249 -5810

A1/B1 = 107.56%

The change is moving from B to A. That means I should have a negative
change. How can I show that?

Thanks,

You could always multiply your answer by -1. However, a "negative" percentage
is not generally a meaningful concept.

What real world problem are you trying to solve?
