To calculate the percentage of interest paid, we divide the amount of interest paid ($29.61) by the amount of the deposit ($987), and then multiply the result by 100 to convert it into a percentage.
(29.61 / 987) * 100 = 0.03 * 100 = 3
Therefore, the percentage of interest paid is 3%.
(29.61 / 987) * 100 = 0.03 * 100 = 3
Therefore, the percentage of interest paid is 3%.
