Answer:

The colony decrease by 84%

Explanation:

Given -

Total population of butterflies before devastation (P) = 150

Total Population of butterflies that survived after the devastation = 24

Total population of butterflies that did not survived = P-p

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get-

Total population of butterflies that did not survived = 150 -24

Percentage by which the butterfly colony decreased = \frac{P-p}{P} * 100\\= \frac{150-24}{150} * 100\\= 84%
