and no money is added or removed from the investment. After one year, she

Respuesta :

Answer:

4%

Step-by-step explanation:

100% represents the starting balance: $180.

Method 1

Express the ending balance as a percentage of the starting balance:

$180

1.04

1.04 times 100=

1.04×100=

104%

Subtract the starting 100% to get the percent interest:

4%

​

Method 2

$187.20−$180=

$7.20

$180

$7.20

​

0.04

0.04 times 100=

0.04×100=

4%
