Calculate % change based on slicer (not date format)

Hi! I'm trying to create a measure to calculate the % change of value based on my slicer selections (which is not in date format). 

 

Here's the sample of my data. My slicer will be "Semester" and I would like to calculate the difference between value based on the selected semesters (up to all of them). For example, if i select semester AH2019 and AH2021, it will show -8% decrease. if i select AH2019, AH2020, AH2021, it will show the % change between all 3 semesters (18.57%, -22%). 

Semester Value% difference 
AH 20197000 
AH 20208300 
AH 20216400 
SS 201910200 
SS 202018202 
SS 2021 8100 

 

Please kindly assist. Your help is much much appreciated.

can you explain in detail how you got it -8%
what was taken away and what was divided.
show in numbers how it turned out -8%

-8% is (6400/7000)-1, the difference between just AH2021 and AH 2019, where 2021 is the newer value based on the year
