    No, they are not the same.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Lets say the price is 100 dollars. Lets start with the 25 and then 10 percent off. Since its 25% off we need to multiple the 100 dollar price by. 75.

    100*.75=75

    Now that we have the 75 dollar price, we need to take off the 10%. We need to multiply the current price of 75 by. 9

    75*.9=67.5

    The price after these 2 discounts is $67.50

    Now lets do the 35% off right away. Since is 35% off we need to multiple our right of 100 by. 65.

    100*.65=65

    The price after the 35% off is $65

    So no, they are not the same.
