Sending BTC on Bitcoin currently costs about $0.236 in network fees (0.00000282 BTC).

A typical transaction (1 SegWit input, 2 outputs) weighs about 141 vbytes. At the current “next 30 minutes” rate of 2 sat/vB it costs 0.00000282 BTC ($0.236). Fastest confirmation (2 sat/vB) costs $0.236; a patient “economy” rate (1 sat/vB) costs $0.118. The amount you send does not change the fee — the number of inputs does, so consolidating many small UTXOs is more expensive.
