APR = 16.99%

The Annual Percentage Rate is the interest rate charged yearly.

Given that there are 12 months in a year, to find the monthly percentage, divide the APR by 12.

Therefore, we have:

[tex]\text{Monthly percentage = }\frac{16.99}{12}=1.42^{}\text{ percent}[/tex]

Therefore, the monthly percentage rate to the nearest hundreth of a percent is 1.42%
