If you eliminate 90% of bacteria with the first application, then 10% of the bacteria will survive.

If you eliminate another 90% of bacteria remaining with the first application, then you will take 90% of 10 and subtract that to find the population remaining after the second application.

.90 * .10 = .09

.10 - .09 = .01

Only 1% of the bacteria is left. Therefore, 99% of the bacteria has been eliminated.

I believe it was negative. When the colonist arrived from Spain to Latin America, many Natives died and were killed, and I do not think that is such a great thing. I believe that the discovery of Latin America did contribute to many new discoveries such as foods and the columbian exchange that changed the diets of Europeans which made people more healthy and live longer. However, all these discoveries of animals, and foods lead to famine, death, and disease among the Native Americans hence also leading to slavery due to the many deaths of Natives, the colonist needed workers so, slavery then happened.
