Answer:  0.65d  (second choice)

====================================================

Explanation:

If you have a 35% discount, this means you save 35% but still pay 65% of the original price.

Notice how 35%+65% = 100%

Or you can think of it as 100% - 35% = 65%

Then we rewrite 65% into 0.65

If d is the original price, then d*0.65 = 0.65d is the price after the discount.

------------------------------

As a slightly longer alternative method, we can say,

d = original price

discount = 35% of d = 0.35d

final price = d - 0.35d

final price = 1d - 0.35d

final price = (1-0.35)d

final price = 0.65d
