    Note : Since unit of currency is not defined, I'll be using units.

    Sales tax on a 15000 units car = 540 units

    540 = 15000 * tax% / 100

    => 540 = 15000 * tax% / 100

    => 540/15000 = tax% / 100

    => tax% = (540/15000) * 100

    => tax% = 540/140

    => tax% = 3.6

    now,

    sales tax on a 32000 units car = 32000 * tax%/100

    = 32000 * 3.6/100

    = 320 * 3.6

    = 1152 units

    therefore sales tax on a 32000 units car = 1152 units
