    If Dave earns $150/week times 4 weeks = 600

    3.8% commission on $4175.68 is $158.68

    $600 + $158.68 = $758.68 for the month of February

    So, Dave earns $150 per week. In the month of February, there are:

    (28/7) = 4 weeks.

    Now,

    He earns a total of $150 * 4 in February. So, in that month he earns $600.

    Now, according to the question, he takes a commission of 3.8%.

    So, we have,

    Total Sales = $4175.68

    Commission amount = Commission % of Total Sales

    = 3.8% * $4175.68

    = 3.8/100 * $4175.68

    = $158.68 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

    Now,

    Gross Income = Monthly income + Commission amount

    = $600 + $158.68

    = $758.68

    So, his gross monthly earning for the month of february is $758.68
