Answer:

$72.25 is the price of the $85 item on sale for 15% off the regular price.

Explanation:

First you need to find out how much 15% off the original price is:

85 x .15 (change percent to a decimal by moving the decimal point to the left two times, so if it was 25%, the decimal form is .25)

85 x .15= 12.75, so there is $12.75 off the original price of $85.

$85 - $12.75= $72.25!

Yw!
