How to calculate multiplicative Pdr?

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but how would I find my total PDR if I had 71% and then got 35% extra?

If you want the mathematical formula, it's this:
*Let each PDR source be represented by the variable 'a'
100*[1-[(1-(a1/100))*(1-(a2/100))*(1-(a3/100))...*(1-(an/100))]

In either case, it's the difference between 81.15% at the end, going by Elufu's math and approximately 79.9%, but very close to 80%. The difference isn't too much to be honest, even at CVellum.

Also not sure if they are counted as a single source or not, there might be another class that has a similar skill but I can't think of one since I just recently quit maple.

Adaptive darkness. 5 stacks of 7% each, but I believe that it is calculated as a single 35% line, rather than 5 different 7% lines, though I'm not sure. The reason why I asked this question is because its effects don't show up in your stats window

35% Ignore Def is a possible potential line for legendary weapons.
