Answer:

The percentage rate is 4.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple interest earned in this situation is $1270 - $1000, or $270.

the simple interest formula is i =prt.

Here, i = $270 = ($1000)(r)(6 yr).

                $270

Then r = ------------------- = 0.045

                $1000(6 yr)

The percentage rate is 4.5%
