Answer:

8.75%

Explanation:

The annual interest rate will be computed as follows:

Loan amount = Proportion of loan X Price of house

Loan amount = 80% X $39,379 = $31,503.2

Annual interest = $229.69 X 12 = $2,756.28

Annual interest rate                     = ($2,756.28/ $31,503.2) X 100%

                                                      = 8.75%
