To find out how much sales tax Cole will pay on his new sneakers, we need to multiply the cost of the sneakers by the sales tax rate.

Sales Tax = Cost of Sneakers x Tax Rate

Sales Tax = $49.56 x 0.065

Sales Tax = $3.22

Therefore, Cole will pay $3.22 in sales tax on his new sneakers.

The correct answer is "$3.22".
