No, because percentage changes are multiplicative, not additive. The second percentage change is not applied to the original amount but to the original amount after it has been changed by the first percentage change.
The type of percent that compares the final and original amounts is called the percentage increase or decrease. It is calculated by dividing the difference between the final amount and the original amount by the original amount, and then multiplying by 100.
