Answer:

The answer is -3.68.

Explanation:

Given expression is :

(-1.15) times 3.2

Now, we know that when a positive number is multiplied by a negative number, the result is always negative. It does not matter in which order the numbers are in that you are multiplying, the answer is always a negative number.

So,
(-1.15)*3.2=-3.68

Hence, the answer is -3.68.
