    Price of the book = $50

    20% discount = 0.2 x 50 = $10

    After discount, the price of the book is

    $50 - $10 = $40

    I have $35, so I need

    $40 - $35 = $5 more

    Answer: I need to borrow $5 from a friend.

    20/100 * 50=$10

    $10.00 discount from the $50.00.

    $50-$10=$40.00

    Have $35.00.

    $40-$35=$5.00

    Need to borrow $5.00!
