### Step 1: Percentage of Population Living in Poverty
First, we'll determine the change in the percentage of population living in poverty for each country from 1987-1988 to 1993-1995.
For each country:
1. Romania:
[tex]\[
\text{Change} = 48\% - 6\% = 42\%
\][/tex]
2. Hungary:
[tex]\[
\text{Change} = 7\% - 1\% = 6\%
\][/tex]
3. Poland:
[tex]\[
\text{Change} = 10\% - 6\% = 4\%
\][/tex]
4. Russia:
[tex]\[
\text{Change} = 39\% - 2\% = 37\%
\][/tex]
5. Ukraine:
[tex]\[
\text{Change} = 26\% - 2\% = 24\%
\][/tex]
The changes in percentage of population living in poverty are:
[tex]\[
[42, 6, 4, 37, 24]
\][/tex]
### Step 2: Greatest Jump in Percentage
Next, we identify the country with the greatest jump in percentage of population living in poverty. By comparing the changes calculated:
