Answer:

$29.75

Explanation:

Usually, teachers usually teach you a different way to calculate this, but I found a shortcut that is useful:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

100 - 15 = 85

Convert 85% into a decimal (0.85)

35 × 0.85 = 29.75

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Have a good day :)
