Answer:

Rate = 0.11%

Explanation:

Using I = PRT

Where,

  • P = Principal = $1200
  • R = Rate = ✘
  • T = Time in years = 0.75 years
  • I = Interest = $99

⟼ I = PRT

Substitute values

⟼ 99 = 1200 × 0.75 × ✘

Multiply

⟼ 99 = 900✘

Divide both sides by the coefficient of ✘

⟼ 99/900 = ✘

⟼ ✘ = 0.11

Therefore, Rate is 0.11%
