algebra precalculus - Percent decrease in log space

I calculated the percent decrease of a value measured at two timepoints:



t1t2t1=d



but I've now realized that the numbers I was given were log transformed, so it's not really correct to say, for example, that if d=0.6 then the value decreased by 60%, since it's a 60% decrease in log space. I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to transform the d I've already calculated into the correct value without recalculating using the untransformed t1 and t2. It seems like it should be fairly straightforward, but for some reason I'm having a hard time thinking about it. Maybe it's not as simple as I think. Is this an easy thing to do?
