Answer: 6.75

Explanation:

for this math problem we need to find the percentage and subtract that from the original number ( 9 ) . . .

what is 25% if 9 ? 2.25

what is 9 - 2.25 ? 6.75

Answer:

75%, or 7

Explanation:

100-25=75

75% of 9 is 6.75 (because 9x0.75)

so we can round to 7, unless there's a decapitated reindeer involved
