Default Calculating the difference between 2 percentages (Ratios)

I would like to express the percent difference change between 2 Ratios
(expressed as percents), and the divisor is negative. for example:

18.40 / -28.27

expressed as a ratio the result should be: 1.65

My calculation yields .65 which I know isn't correct.

Thanks for your help
