6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest = Principal * rate * time

      156 = 520(r)(5)

      156 = 2600r

           r = 0.06 or 6%

Answer:

6 percent

Interest =1 Part

156 = 520(annual rate )(5)

156 = 2600(annual interest rate )

annual rate=156/2600  

annual interest  rate  = 0.06

annual interest rate=0.06*100

annual interest rate =6%
