Daniela's estimated total earnings for the week from her ice cream store are calculated by multiplying the number of scoops and sundaes sold by their respective prices and then summing the totals. The calculation gives an estimated earning of $1,648.04.

Explanation:

To estimate Daniela's total earnings from her ice cream store this week, we need to calculate her earnings from each type of ice cream product and then sum them up.

The earnings from single scoops are 417 scoops × $1.40 each.
The earnings from double scoops are 298 scoops × $2.30 each.
The earnings from sundaes are 82 sundaes × $4.62 each.

We perform the following calculations:

417 × $1.40 = $583.80
298 × $2.30 = $685.40
82 × $4.62 = $378.84

Finally, to find the total earnings, we add these amounts together:
$583.80 + $685.40 + $378.84 = $1,648.04

Therefore, a close estimate of Daniela's total earnings for the week is $1,648.04.
