In May 1940 the Netherlands was invaded by Nazi Germany, and the Nazis rounded up and killed all the Jews they could find. The percentage you give is too high. The Netherlands lost about 107,000 of its prewar Jewish population of about 140,000. (That is about 76%). The figure is higher than for other countries in Western Europe that were occupied.

How many jews were murdered in each country and what percentage of the prewar jewish population did they constitute?

Poland's Jewish population has been estimated at 3.3-3.5 million in 1939, of whom only 380,000 remained at the end of the war. Some fled eastward in 1939, only to lose their lives following the 1941 nazi invasion of the USSR. Total Jewish deaths are variously estimated at 2.9-3.0 million, or around 88% of the prewar population.
