Data:
P (Principal) = $2500
I (Simple Interest) = $840
t (time) = 6 years
r (percentage rate) = ?

Formula:
[tex]I = P*r*t[/tex]

[tex]I = P*r*t[/tex]
[tex]840 = 2500*r*6[/tex]
[tex]840 = 15000r[/tex]
[tex]15000r = 840[/tex]
[tex]r = \frac{840}{15000} [/tex]
[tex]r = 0.056\to\:\boxed{\boxed{r =5.6\%}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark[/tex]
