Answer 1

`\text{We are finding the total price of the wagon}\\\\\text{We know that the original price was \$25}\\\\\text{However. there was sale for 20\% off for it. Calculate the reduced price}\\\\25\cdot0.20=5\\\\25-5=20\\\\\text{Now we have to calculate tax, so multiply 20 by 1.15}\\\\20\cdot1.15=23\\\\\boxed{\$23}`

Answer 2
