Answer:

The real interest rate is 0%

Explanation:

To calculate the real interest rate, we can use the following formula:

Real Interest Rate = [(1+nominal interest rate)/(1-+inflation rate)]-1

Now, we plug the amounts into the formula:

Real Interest Rate = [(1+0.09)/(1+0.09)]-1

                              =[1.09/1.09]-1

                              =1-1

                              =0

Thus, the Real Interst Rate is equal to 0%
