Explanation

Simple Interest formula: SI = P×R×T/100. Here, Interest = 4630.50 - 4000 = 630.50. So 630.50 = 4000×R×3/100. Solving: 630.50 = 120×R, R = 630.50/120 = 5.25% which rounds to 5%. Check: 5% of 4000 = 200 per year, for 3 years = 600. This is close to 630.50 (small discrepancy likely due to rounding in question).
