Not sure if you're asking what the sales tax amount would be on $16 or how do you figure out what the sales tax amount would be if your total bill was $16.
If your subtotal was $16 then 6% sales tax would be 96 cents.
If this is a math problem and you want to know what the sales tax was if your TOTAL was $16 then the equation is this:
16 = x + (x*.06) or 16 = x + .06x or 16 = x (1 + .06) or 16 = x(1.06) then you divide 16 by 1.06 to get the subtotal (x) which in this case is 15.09434.

multiply the subtotal by .06
$16.00 x .06 = .96 tax
$16.96 total
Another way to do it is to remember that 6% of 100 is 6. So, 6% of a dollar is 6 cents. And 6 cents times 16 dollars is 96 cents.

6% = 6/100 = .06
To find the sales tax you muliply .06 with $16.
0.06*16 = .96
That means you will have to pay 96 cents of sales tax on a $16 purchase.
Your total is $16+$.96 = $16.96

Multiply 16 times .06. That is the tax. Add it to the $16 to see the amount you have to pay.
