To determine which two countries lost the smallest percentage of their populations during World War I, we need to look at the percentages:

- Russia: [tex]\( 1.1\% \)[/tex]
- France: [tex]\( 1.5\% \)[/tex]
- UK: [tex]\( 0.24\% \)[/tex]
- Italy: [tex]\( 1.6\% \)[/tex]
- Serbia: [tex]\( 5.7\% \)[/tex]
- US: [tex]\( 0.1\% \)[/tex]

We are tasked with finding the two smallest percentages in this list. Let's examine them step-by-step:

1. US with [tex]\( 0.1\% \)[/tex] – this is the smallest percentage.
2. UK with [tex]\( 0.24\% \)[/tex] – this is the next smallest percentage after the US.

Thus, the two countries that lost the smallest percentage of their populations are the US and the UK.

The correct answer is:
the US and the UK
