Answer: 5.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for simple interest: Interest = [tex]\dfrac{P\times R \times T}{100}[/tex], where P= Principal , R = Rate of interest , T= Time.

Given: P= $3,875, T= 3 years , Interest = $651

Substitute all values in formula, we get

[tex]651=\dfrac{3875\times R\times3}{100}\\\\\Rightarrow\ R= \dfrac{65100}{3875\times3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ R=5.6\%[/tex]

Hence, the required rate = 5.6%
