Total sales for a month is $35,450 and the commission rate is 4.5% .

So, the amount of commission will be :

4.5% of $35,450


= (0.045*35450) = 1595.25 dollar

Weekly base salary is $175. So, the monthly base salary will be :
(175*4)= 700 dollar

Thus, the monthly pay = (monthly base salary + commission amount)


=(700+1595.25)=2295.25 dollar
