Commission=4.5% of $2600

Commission=0.045×$2600

Add the commission to the base salary:

Total Earnings=Base Salary+ CommissionTotal Earning =Base Salary+Commission Let's calculate:

Commission=0.045×$2600=$117

Total Earnings=$475+$117=$592

So, Sam would make $592 during the work week if he sold $2600 worth of merchandise.
