The best way to multiply complicated problems mentally* is to break them into chunks.
Start with 20 times 8 to get 160, and then 8 times 5 to get 40. Add these together to get 200. 200 times 3 is 600, and 20 times 200 is 4000. Add these together to get your final answer, 4600.
In other words 8 x 20 + 8 x 5 = 200 200 x 3 + 200 x 20 = 4600
*I assumed you meant mentally, because otherwise you'd just multiply longhand, multiplying two of the three numbers and then multiplying their product with the third.
First you have to know, that the price the agent found is 70% of $2075
(100%-30%=70%)
70%=0,7
$2075 * 0,7 = $1452,5
So 70% 0f $2075 is 1452,5
The price the agant found is $1452,5.
