    Divide your earned money by 0.015.
If you earned cash back of $1,000 , and divide by 0.015, you find that you had to spend $66,666.66 to get the cash back rewards.
For about $850 ....it is $56,666.66

    If you can not do this on your own, you should not have the credit card. Never ever pay an interest fee on you credit card. Always pay your total off at the end of the month. Credit card companies do not like that, but the make money nevertheless on every purchase, they just make even more when you carry a balance.

    I pay for everything by credit card that’s payable by credit card, I don’t know what the interest rate is, since I’ve never paid any. The last thing I paid any interest on anything was my home mortgage and I paid that off years ago. I simply forgot how to do the math. Thanks everyone for the correct answer and explanations.
$850 is the reason why I use a credit card. Will come in handy around Christmas time.
