To find the total cost of the calculator with sales tax, you need to add the sales tax to the original price.
Sales tax = (8/100) * $98.99
= $7.9192
Rounding to the nearest cent, the sales tax is $7.92.
Total cost = $98.99 + $7.92
= $<<98.99+7.92=106.91>>106.91
The total cost of the calculator, including sales tax, is $106.91.
