The answer is, 98 pounds. how I got my answer.

I found how many pounds was taken off of 200 pounds to 32 pounds, which is 168 pounds, so 200-168=32, so then I knew to multiply 15Ă—2=30, which would make it 100 pounds. since 32=200 I thought I must take 2 off since the remainder is 2, so I subtracted 100-2=98, so once again, the answer is 98 pounds.

I hope this helps.
