15 % = 15 / 100 = 0.15, then
total - ( total * 0.15)
another way is you have 85 % remaining, so (85 / 100) * total = 0.85 * total

firstly, find 15 per cent of 450, by dividing 450 by 100 and then multiplying it by 15. After you've found this, subtract this from 450. :)
You can either calculate 15% of 34.00, which is 34.00*15/100 = 5.10 and subtract that from 34.00 to give 28.90 or you can subtract 15% from 100% = 85% and calculate 85% of 34.00, which is 34.00*85/100 = 28.90.
First find 10% by dividing the total amount by 10. So 10% of 15 = 1.5 Now subtract 10% from the original amount to get 15 - 1.5 = 13.5
To subtract 15 percent from a number, multiply it by (1 - 15/100) = 0.85. Therefore, 162 - 15% = 162 x 0.85 = 137.7.
