What is a 75 Percent Off?
A 75 percent off refers to a discount where the price of an item or service is reduced by 75%. This means that the customer only pays 25% of the original price. For example, if an item originally costs $100, a 75% off would reduce the price to $25. This type of discount is often used in sales promotions to attract customers and increase sales.
