Answer:

0.65

Step-by-step explanation:

To reduce a quantity by 35%, multiply it by 100% - 35% = 65% = 0.65

Think of it like this:  if 35% of a quantity is gone, 65% remains.

This applies to all sorts of situations.  One example is discount or sale prices.

A $250 item goes on sale at a 35% discount.  The sale price is 0.65 x 250 = 162.5  ($162.50).  If you DON'T pay 35% of something, you DO pay 65%.
