Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we can use a modified version of the simple interest formula which is shown below:

r=\frac{I}{Pt}

<em>I = interest amount </em>

<em>P = principal amount </em>

<em>t = time (years) </em>

Lets plug in the values:

r=\frac{6000}{(5000)(12)}

r=0.1

The last step is to convert 0.1 into a percent:

0.1(100) = 10

The interest rate is 10%
