Please double-check that amount, as there is no bracket for 15% being taxable. If any is taxable, it is either 50% or 85%.
Could it be that 15% is non-taxable, leaving 85% taxable? Line 20a of your 1040 form will show your total social security, and 20b will show how much is taxable. (If you file a 1040A, use lines 14a and 14b.)
