We can simply find this solution with a simple equation
45/0.103=About 437
You answer is NO, because our equation does not equal 365 which is the amount of days in a year.

The compound interest rate is given as 45% per year.

It is required to check if this is equivalent to the rate of 0.103% per day.

To convert the annual interest rate to the daily interest rate, divide the annual interest rate by 365, the number of days in a year:


(45)/(365)\approx0.123

Hence, the equivalent daily rate is about 0.123% per day.

It follows that the given interest rates are not equivalent.

No, they are not equivalent.
