Default Reciprocals Anyone?

I have the following formula in my worksheet which basically gives me the
maximum/minumum numbers in a column.

How can I modify by adding 1 to the maximum/minumum numbers, then calculate the
reciprocals of those numbers, followed by the subtraction.

=MAX(A2:A122)-SMALL(A2:A122,COUNTIF($A$2:$A122,0)+1)

If max is 50 and min is 20.

Adding 1 to each = 51 and 21.

Reciprocals =

1/51 = 0.019
1/21 = 0.047

Max - Min, 0.047 - 0.019 = 0.028.

I would then like to multiply the result by 100 giving 28% (deviation).
