    Hello!

    Let's check:

    200 * 25% = 50

    200 - 50 = 150

    150 * 10% = 15

    150 - 15 = 135

    So, with the 25% and then an extra 10% off, the coat would cost $135.

    200 * 35% = 70

    200 - 70 = 130

    So, Jenny's friend is incorrect, because that is not the same as a 35% discount.
