Answer: B, D, and E

0.85L

or

L-0.15L

or

L(1-0.15)

or


L - (15)/(100)L


L - (3)/(20)L

Explanation:

L is the number of hours Landen spent at the beach. Mateo spent 15% less time. This means he spent 85% of it. So 0.85 times L. We can also calculate it by subtracting the difference between the two kids. - 15%. 15% is 0.15L or
(15)/(100)L. We subtract by L-0.15L or as
L - (15)/(100)L. This fraction can simplify to
L - (3)/(20)L
