i would calculate this by taking 10% which is 1.5 (that's easy to work out because you just move the decimal point when place).

then another 5% (to give 15%) is half as much again = 0.75

1.5 + 0.75 = 2.25

15 - 2.25 = 12.75

If you're doing this on a calculator then it's 0.85 x 15

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
