A loan company charges 20 dollars interest for a two month loan of 325 dollars. Find the annual interest rate (APR) they are charging. Round interest to tenth of a percent.

 

I have a loan formula, would I use that to find R?

Mmm

It would depend on how often they add interest to the principal, that is , what is the compounding period.......

but

 

20/325= 6.1538461%

so nominal annual interest rate may be  6*6.1538461%=36.9230769% = 36.9%

 

I'm not borrowing any money off them!!
