Answer:

B, 33%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us find the original price of four chairs without the special deal, and compare it with the deal to find the percent savings.

Step 1:

A customer must buy 4 chairs costing $75 each to recieve the deal. Let us multiply 4 by 75 to find the total cost without the deal:

[tex]4*75=\\300[/tex]

Step 2:

We now know the original cost of the 4 chairs, and the price of 4 chairs with a deal. Let us subtract the difference of costs and convert it into a percentage to find percent savings:

[tex]300-200=100\\\frac{100}{300} =\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{3}=33[/tex]%

Therefore, B, the percent savings is 33%.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)
