Simply divide this value by the number of months:

23/12 = 1.916

The equivalent monthly interest rate is 1.916%

Hope This Helps You!

Good Luck (:

Have A Great Day ^-^

Answer:

The equivalent monthly interest rate would be 1.92% (approx)

Explanation:

Given,

The annual interest rate = 23 %,

Since, 1 year = 12 month,

Thus, the monthly interest rate =
\frac{\text{Annual interest rate}}{12}


=(23)/(12)


=1.9166667\%


=1.92\%

Hence, the equivalent monthly interest rate would be 1.92% (approx)
