Let's say the cost of the board game is $15.
To calculate the sales tax, we multiply the cost of the game by the sales tax rate of 6.5%:
Sales tax = $15 * 6.5% = $0.975
To find the total cost of the board game including sales tax, we add the sales tax to the cost of the game:
Total cost = $15 + $0.975 = $15.975
Rounding appropriately, the total cost of the board game including sales tax is $16.
