Explanation

We need to find ? such that ?% of 750.11 × 34.90 + 6.995 ≈ 3000. Approximating: 750 ≈ 750, 35 ≈ 35, 7 ≈ 7. So ?/100 × 750 × 35 + 7 ≈ 3000. This gives ? × 262.5 ≈ 2993, so ? ≈ 2993/262.5 ≈ 11.4. Among the options, 12% is closest. Let's verify: 12% of 750 × 35 = 0.12 × 750 × 35 = 90 × 35 = 3150. Adding 7 gives 3157, which is close to 3000 considering the approximation. The answer is 12.
