Answer:

$5.82

Explanation:

A markup or markdown of p% on a price causes that price to be multiplied by ...

(1 + p/100)

The price after the markup 115% is ...

$7.74(1 + 115/100)

And the price after that has been marked down 65% is ...

$7.74(1 +115/100)(1 -65/100) = $7.74×2.15×0.35 ≈ $5.82

The discount price was $5.82.
