95% of answers could be accurate. Combined with the 85% that are helpful and you have “85% of answers are helpful & accurate.”

Who would intentionally downplay their accuracy in marketing materials by conflating the statistic with another?

Instead of using the lower bound, wouldn't it make more sense to say "85% of the 95% accurate answers are helpful"? Or perhaps "95% of the 85% helpful answers are accurate"?
In both cases, the number for "answers that are both helpful and accurate" is lower than 85%.

Yep, the other commenter is right--85% is helpful AND accurate. I'd love for you to give it a try and see if 85% is not good enough though. There's always more to push on quality and the more real feedback we get the better we can prioritize what people need.
People can usually tell if an answer isn't helpful, but not always that it isn't accurate. Depending on the context, 85% accurate might not be good enough.
