To find the new price after a 75% reduction on the original price, you can follow these steps:

1. Calculate 75% of the original price.
2. Subtract that amount from the original price.

Let's do the calculations:

1. Original price: $35
2. Calculate 75% of $35:
\[
0.75 \times 35 = 26.25
\]

3. Now, subtract this amount from the original price:
\[
35 - 26.25 = 8.75
\]

So, the price of the item now is $8.75.
