Answer: A) 75

Step-by-step explanation:

Ask yourself "is 75.26 closer to 75 or is it closer to 76?"

The answer would be that it's closer to 75. It might help to set up a number line. On the number line, mark 75 and 76. Also, mark the halfway point as well. Note that 75.26 is on the left side of that halfway mark which places it closer to 75.

Or you could see that the tenths decimal digit is not 5 or greater, which means we simply drop the "26" portion and write 75 as the answer.
