Answer:

$21.76

Explanation:

I believe the answer is $21.76. First I had to figure out what 15% of 32 dollars was ... I came up with $4.80 so I subtracted that and got $27.20 at which point I needed to figure out what 20% of that was (the additional savings) and I came up with $5.44 ... $27.20-5.44 = $21.76

I THINK... lol
