Answer:

  0.06164

Step-by-step explanation:

The effective annual rate obtained by compounding nominal annual rate r monthly is ...

  eff rate = (1 +r/12)^12 -1

Then the value of r is ...

  r = 12×((eff rate) +1)^(1/12) -1)

For the given effective rate, that is ...

  r = 12×(1.06341^(1/12) -1) ≈ 0.06164 . . . . nominal annual interest rate
