I = P r t        r = I / P t     r = $450/ $3000 (3years)   r = 450 / 9000      r = .05

Answer:

5% or 0.05          

Step-by-step explanation:

Diana invested $3000 in savings account 3 years. And the total interest gained by Diana is $450. Therefore,

Principal amount (P) = $3000

Time (t) = 3 years

Total interest (I) = $450

Rate (r) =r

Using the formula,

I = \(\frac{Prt}{100}\)

450 = \(\frac{3000*r*3}{100}\)  

45000 = 9000×r

r = \(\frac{45000}{9000}\)

  =5%

r = 0.05

Hence, the interest rate = 0.05
