Answer:


\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{6 \: \% \: }}}}}

Explanation:

Given

Principal ( P ) = N 245

Interest ( I ) = N 117.60

Time ( T ) = 8 years

Rate = ?

Finding the rate percent :


\boxed{ \sf{rate = (interest \: * 100)/(principal * time) }}

plug the values


\sf{ (117.60 * 100)/(245 * 8) }

Calculate


\sf{ (11760)/(1960) }


\sf{6 \: \%}

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!
