The price of an item has been reduced by 35%. The original price was $65. Find the price of the item.
To find the price of the item after the reduction, we need to calculate 35% of the original price and then subtract that amount from the original price.
35% of $65 is calculated as: (35/100) * $65 = $22.75
Subtracting this amount from the original price gives us:
$65 - $22.75 = $42.25
Therefore, the price of the item after the reduction is $42.25.
