Answer:

The answer is

$33.75

Explanation:

This question is based on percentage and how well we can apply it.

Before now

Fred's dog groomer charges $25

He then announces a price increment by 35%

Fred will pay extra 35% of the initial charges

which is computed as follows

35/100*25= $8.75

Therefore fred will pay $33.75

I.e 25+8.75=$33.75

subsequently
