Step 1: Calculate the price after the first discount:

1 - 0.45 = 0.55

Step 2: Calculate the price after the second discount:

0.55 \times (1 - 0.35) = 0.55 \times 0.65 = 0.3575

Step 3: Convert the final price to a percentage of the original price:

0.3575 \times 100 = 35.75 \%

Final Answer:

35.75 \%
