    The cost of the shirt (given) : $36; The tax rate (given) : 8%

    Calculate 8% of $36: i. e. (8/100) * 36 (OR) 0.08*36 = 2.88

    Add this to $36 to get the total cost of the shirt i. e. $36 + 2.88 = $38.88

    Therefore, the total cost of the shirt is $38.88

    If she's getting taxed an extra 8% of the price, then it would be:

    36x1.08 = 38.88

    Therefore she'd be paying $38.88 with tax.
