For this problem we have to find the interest rate   given  . To archive that , we can just solve the equation making the interest rate the subject of the formula as shown below,

I= Prt

=> r= I/Pt

=> r= 60/600x5 = 1/50

The interest rate is 1/50 or 0.02 as a decimal. The interest rate is 2% as a percentage.
