A $17.85

B $18.50

C $34.35

D $51.34

Answer 1

34.35 is your correct answer. 

Answer 2

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
