Jessica will pay 5.00% if the interest rate is compounded every two months.

What is Interest Rate?

The interest rate is a proportion of the interest on the lent amount that a lender charges a borrower.

If Jessica's bank is offering her a loan with an interest rate of 4.90% interest.

Then, in a month, she will be charged;

  • = 4.90/100
  • = 0.049 on the amount borrowed

In two months, she will be charged:

  • = 0.049 × 2
  • = 0.098

The total amount that Jessica pays after two months is:

  • = (4.90 + 0.098)
  • = 4.998%
  • ≅ 5.00%
