The price of an item has been reduced by 35%. The original was price was 19 %

if the original price was $19 then the price now would be $12.35. we would solve this by turning 35% into a decimal ... we get. 35

what we do next is multiply 19 by. 35 and we get 6.65

next, we subtract 6.65 from 19

and our final answer is: $12.35
