Answer: $4,748

Step-by-step explanation: A year is 12 months and since he gets paid once a month, then you divide $56,980 by 12, and that equals $4,748 a month.

Hope it helps and have a great day!

There are 12 months in a year, so Matt would theoretically earn

$56,980 / 12 ≈ $4,748.33

each month. (But his earnings will certainly be taxed, so the real answer is less than this.)
