Carol Miller went to Europe and forgot to pay her $1,000 mortgage payment on her New Hampshire ski house. For her 25 days overdue on her payment, the bank charged her a penalty of $5. What was the rate of interest charged by the bank? (Use 360 days a year. Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth percent.)

assuming simple interest,
1000 * r/360 * 25 = 5
r = .0720 = 7.20%
1000 * r/360 * 25 = 5
r = .0720 = 7.20%
