The rate of interest paid on the principal amount is 8%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, Principal Amount = $2,000

Time = 3 months = (3/ 12 ) Years = 0.25 years

Rate = R

Interest Amount = $40

Now, as we know :

Simple Interest = $\frac{P \times R \times T}{100}$

⇒ $40 = \frac{2,000 \times R \times 0.25}{100}\\\implies R = \frac{40 \times 100}{2000 \times 0.25} =8$

or, R = 8%

Hence, the rate of interest paid is 8%.
