    Answer:

    6%

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given data

    Principal = ​$1,000

    Time= 8 years

    Simple interest= ​​$480

    The expression for the simple interest is

    Simple interest= PRT/100

    Substitute

    480= 1000*R*8/100

    Cross multiply

    480= 8000R/100

    480*100= 8000R

    48000= 8000R

    Divide both sides by 8000

    R= 48000/8000

    R=6%
