From its name:

(4S,6S,12aS)-4-(dimethylamino)- 3,6,10,12,12a-pentahydroxy- 6-methyl-1,11-dioxo-1,4,4a,5,5a,6,11,12a- octahydrotetracene-2-carboxamide

you can learn that there are: three chiral C-atoms,

all in S-configuration, located at 4S(dimethylamino) and 6S(hydroxy) and 12aS(hydroxy) on the 'tetracene rings'

How much chiral carbon does tetracycline have?

The number of chiral center of tetracycline is 5 .. there are 5 chiral carbons.If there is confusion about the 25=32 Remark, the previous writer was using the equation- 2 to the power of n= then the number of possible stereoisomers, where n is the number of stereogenic centers, hence 2 to the power of 5 is 32.
