Ten percent is easy to figure-- just move the deciml one place to left, do 10 percent of $35.00 is $3.50. Twenty per cent is twice 10 percent, so 2 times $3.50 = $7.00.

Twenty percent off means take $7 off of $35.

Of course, 20% off is 80% left and 80% of 35 means .8 times 35 = 4/5 times 35.

Cancel the 5 into the 35 to get 7 times 4 = 28.
