First simplify the section in the parenthesis.
-1/6 + 2/3(8 1/4) + -1/2
Then multiply 2/3 by 8 1/4.
-1/6 + 5 1/2 + -1/2
Add -1/2 to 5 1/2.
-1/6 + 5
Add 5 to -1/6.
4 5/6 is the fully simplified answer.

Answer: 37.5%
Explanation:
Percentage is defined as parts of an amount in 100 parts of a basis. This must be stated mathamatically for better understanding and for calculations. It is the ratio:
% = (parts / base) × 100.
In this case you need to express the amount of butter as a part in 100 parts of all purpose flour, which, using the above definition, is:
% butter = (0.75 pounds of butter / 2 pound of flour) × 100
% butter = 0.75 × 100 / 2 = 75 / 2 = 37.5
The answer is expressed as 37.5%.
Change 4/5 - 2/3 so that the denominator is th same. Let’s try 15.
So, 12/15 - 10/15.
Then, subtract to get 2/15.
