Now, let's apply a sales tax of 8.5%. To do this, we are going to need to find the balance of the tax, which we can then add to the subtotal. The balance of the tax is:

Adding this to the subtotal, we get:

Now, we know the total cost she is going to have to pay is $71.07. Thus, using a $100 bill, she is going to have to pay:

She is going to have to pay $28.93.
