To find the total cost of the snowboard including shipping and handling, we first need to calculate the shipping and handling fee, which is 21% of the price of the snowboard.
1. Calculate the shipping and handling cost:
\[
\text{Shipping and Handling Cost} = 0.21 \times \text{Price of Snowboard} = 0.21 \times 809
\]
Now, performing the multiplication:
\[
\text{Shipping and Handling Cost} = 0.21 \times 809 = 169.89
\]
2. Now add the shipping and handling cost to the price of the snowboard to find the total cost:
\[
\text{Total Cost} = \text{Price of Snowboard} + \text{Shipping and Handling Cost} = 809 + 169.89
\]
Performing the addition:
\[
\text{Total Cost} = 809 + 169.89 = 978.89
\]
Thus, the total cost of the snowboard, including shipping and handling, is **$978.89**.
