    Explanation:

    Given that

    Last year rental cost of the car = $90

    This year rental cost of the car = $102.99

    So, the inflation rate equal to

    = (This year rental cost of the car - Last year rental cost of the car) : (Last year rental cost of the car)

    = ($102.99 - $90) : ($90)

    = ($12.99) : ($90)

    = 14.43%

    We simply applied the above formula to compute the inflation rate
