Answer: 3.1%

====================================================

Work Shown:

P = amount invested (aka principal) = 15,000

r = unknown annual interest rate

t = elapsed time in years = 2

i = simple interest earned = 930

------------------

i = P*r*t ..................... is the simple interest formula

930 = 15000*r*2 .... plug in given values

930 = 15000*2*r

930 = 30000r

30000r = 930

r = 930/30000 ..... divide both sides by 30000

r = 0.031

Multiply that by 100 to convert to a percentage

0.031 ---> 100*0.031 = 3.1%

So r = 0.031 is the same as r = 3.1%
