At one store, matt saved $25 with a coupon for 50% off his total purchase. at another store, the $22 he spent on books is 44% of his total bill. how much did matt spend in all at the two store?

$25 * 50% = $12.50

$22 * 44% = $9.68 --->  $22 - $9.68 = $12.32

He spent $12.50 + $12.32 = $24.82 in both stores.
