Answer: 3 fluid ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

The family size bottle of shampoo holds 10 fluid ounces of sunscreen while the regular bottle holds 70% percent less.

To get the fluid ounces the regular bottle of shampoo will hold, we find 70% of 10 fluid ounces and them subtract from 10 fluid ounces. This will be:

= 70% of 10 ounces

= 7/10 × 10

= 7 fluid ounces.

Since the regular holds 70% less, week subtract 7 fluid ounces from 10 fluid ounces. This will be:

= 10 ounces - 7 ounces

= 3 ounces.

The regular bottle of shampoo holds 3 fluid ounces.
