To find out how much Rafael earned per month, divide his annual salary by the number of months in a year:

[ \text{Monthly earnings} = \frac{\text{Annual salary}}{\text{Number of months}} ]

Given:

Annual salary = $34,944
Number of months in a year = 12

[ \text{Monthly earnings} = \frac{34,944}{12} = $2,912 ]

Rafael earned $2,912 per month last year.
