    A

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since $2.75 discount is given on towel

    $0.5 discount is given on candle

    10% discount is given on set of dishes

    We will have to calculate the discount for the set of dishes

    10% of $35.10

    10/100 * 35.10

    =35.1

    So the discount on the set of dishes is $35.1

    When comparing the discount on the three things she bought, it was observed that she gained a lot from the discount given on the set of dishes

    So the answer is A
