Solution:

We are given that

Cost of the pair of shoes : $ 52.85

we are also given that

Marked Down Percentage : 35%

Marked down price : 35% of 52.85 =
(35)/(100) * 52.85 = 18.50

Final Price = Cost of the pair of shoes - Marked down price


=52.85 -18.50 = 34.35

Hence, the final price of the shoes after they are marked down is $ 34.35

Option : C
