Answer: 9

Step-by-step explanation: Given The family size sunscreen bottle contains 12 fluid ounces of sunscreen. The standard bottle holds only 75% as much. The normal sunscreen container contains how many fewer fluid ounces?

A 12-ounce family-size bottle is available. However, the regular bottle contains 75% less.

So, 75/100 x 12 = 9 ounces.

As a result, a standard bottle may store 9 ounces of liquid.

Hope this helps!

The regular bottle holds 3 fewer fl oz than the family size. 75% of 12 is 9, then subtracted from 12 is 3.
