Respuesta :

Answer: Option (c) is correct. Rate of interest = 6% p.a.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

principal amount = $2000(loan)

time period =  284 days

interest amount (SI) = $93.37

we have to calculate the rate of interest (i),

Simple interest(SI) = principal amount × rate of interest (i) × time period

93.37 = 2000 × i × [tex]\frac{284}{365}[/tex]

i = [tex]\frac{34080.05}{568000}[/tex]

i = 0.06

i = 6%
