Answer:

9 ounces

Explanation:

The information in the question given

The regular bottle holds 75% less.

we need to find that how many fewer fluid ounces does the regular bottle of sunscreen hold?

Now given family size bottle holds 12 fluid ounces. But regular bottle has 75% less, therefore it can be measured as below

75/100 x 12 = 9 ounces

So the regular bottle holds 9 ounces of fluid.
