Final answer:

To calculate the total cost of a game with a 7% sales tax, you simplify the expression g + 0.07g to 1.07g and then multiply the original price by 1.07. For an original price of AED 52, the total cost after tax would be AED 55.64.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of a game g with 7% sales tax can be simplified by combining the like terms in the expression g + 0.07g. First, we convert the percentage to a decimal and then we add it to the original price of the game. To do this, we can factor out g from both terms resulting in g(1 + 0.07), which simplifies to 1.07g. If the original price is AED 52, we multiply it by 1.07 to find the total cost after sales tax. So, AED 52 x 1.07 = AED 55.64.
