let us see now what the difference of working with percentage points is. if a question says that france's population is 11% of the population of the eu in 2000, and it has increased by 2 percentage points in 2015, what is the new percentage? in this case, it is much easier to calculate the result, because they give us directly the number of percentage points to add to the initial value. so we just do: 11 + 2 = 13% this way, we get that the population of france represents a 13% of the whole population of the eu in 2015. again here, we could work with the unit format, doing 0.11 + 0.02 = 0.13, but we would have to change twice (from and to percentage formats), slowing down our calculation process, so it would be useless. anyway, do not worry in this sense, because when you have practised a lot of exercises, you will be able to better decide when to choose one or the other format (percentage or unit) to speed up your calculations, and no matter the format you choose, you will get the same result. on the other hand, if a question provides us with percentage points of decrease, we would have to subtract them from the initial value. for example: if the population of finland is 1.2% of the population of the eu in 2000, and it has decreased by 0.2 percentage points in 2015, what is the new percentage?
