The number 96 is equivalent to the 100%. So we can state the following rule of three:


\begin{gathered} 96\text{ ------ 100 \%} \\ x\text{ -------- 75 \%} \end{gathered}

By cross-multiplying these numbers, we have


\text{ (100\%)}* x=(96)*\text{ (75 \%)}

So, x is given by


\begin{gathered} x=\frac{(96)*\text{ (75 \%)}}{\text{ 100\%}} \\ x=72 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answer is 72
