Not sure how you missed the second sentence, or why you would use made up numbers in your response when I provided the brackets.

In the U.S., as a single filer, you pay 10% on your first $9,875, 12% from $9,876 to $40,125 and 22% from $40,126 to $85,525.

It does end up at 13% of $72K, assuming the $10K standard deduction. Since only the initial percentage was posted, no one would have any way of knowing if it was coming from the total calculation or anywhere else.

Ah, sorry, I thought the tilde made it clear that "13%" was the approximate result of a calculation.
