Answer 1

You could use asset_path :

<div style="background-image: url('#{asset_path('logo.png')}')"></div>

<!-- asset_path('logo.png') will generate real path
=> /assets/logo-6d4bec8ad65e03a460fea1e6b84d71b.png -->

Or you could use image-url within a scss file:

/* assets/css/homepage.scss */
#homepage {
  background-image: image-url('logo.png');
}

Answer 2

You can try this:

background-image: image-url('logo.png') no-repeat;
