To find the annual interest rate, we need to divide the total interest paid by the principal and the number of years.
Total interest = $60
Principal = $600
Number of years = 5
Annual interest rate = Total interest / Principal / Number of years
Annual interest rate = $60 / $600 / 5
Annual interest rate = 0.02 or 2%
Therefore, the annual interest rate is 2%.
Total interest = $60
Principal = $600
Number of years = 5
Annual interest rate = Total interest / Principal / Number of years
Annual interest rate = $60 / $600 / 5
Annual interest rate = 0.02 or 2%
Therefore, the annual interest rate is 2%.
