(p−15% of p)+8% of (p−15% of p) (p−((15p)/(100)))+8% of (p−((15p)/(100))) (((85p)/(100)))+8% of (((85p)/(100))) ((17p)/(20))+((17p)/(20))×(8/(100)) ((17p)/(20))+((17p)/(20))×(2/(25)) ((17p)/(20))+((17p)/(10))×(1/(25)) ((17p)/(20))+((17p)/(250)) ((459p)/(500))

$$\left({p}−\mathrm{\color{mathbrown}{1}\color{mathbrown}{5}\%}\color{mathbrown}{\:}{\color{mathbrown}{o}\color{mathbrown}{f}}\color{mathbrown}{\:}{\color{mathbrown}{p}}\right)+\mathrm{8\%}\:{of}\:\left({p}−\mathrm{\color{mathbrown}{1}\color{mathbrown}{5}\%}\color{mathbrown}{\:}{\color{mathbrown}{o}\color{mathbrown}{f}}\color{mathbrown}{\:}{\color{mathbrown}{p}}\right) \\ $$ $$\left({p}−\frac{\mathrm{15}{p}}{\mathrm{100}}\right)+\mathrm{8\%}\:{of}\:\left({p}−\frac{\mathrm{15}{p}}{\mathrm{100}}\right) \\ $$ $$\left(\frac{\mathrm{85}{p}}{\mathrm{100}}\right)+\mathrm{8\%}\:{of}\:\left(\frac{\mathrm{85}{p}}{\mathrm{100}}\right) \\ $$ $$\frac{\mathrm{17}{p}}{\mathrm{20}}+\frac{\mathrm{17}{p}}{\mathrm{20}}×\frac{\mathrm{8}}{\mathrm{100}} \\ $$ $$\frac{\mathrm{17}{p}}{\mathrm{20}}+\frac{\mathrm{17}{p}}{\mathrm{20}}×\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{25}} \\ $$ $$\frac{\mathrm{17}{p}}{\mathrm{20}}+\frac{\mathrm{17}{p}}{\mathrm{10}}×\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{25}} \\ $$ $$\frac{\mathrm{17}{p}}{\mathrm{20}}+\frac{\mathrm{17}{p}}{\mathrm{250}} \\ $$ $$\frac{\mathrm{459}{p}}{\mathrm{500}} \\ $$
