Answer:

  3.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

The interest on a simple-interest loan is ...

  I = Prt

where P is the principal value, r is the annual rate, and t is the number of years.

Solving for r, we get ...

  r = I/(Pt) = 608/(4000×4) = 0.038 = 3.8%

The annual interest rate for the loan was 3.8%.
