7200 for the remaining 15 days of the billing cycle.- The credit card's APR is 13%.Step 1: Calculate the daily interest rate.APR = 13%Daily interest rate = APR / 365 = 13% / 365 = 0.0356% per dayStep 2: Calculate the interest charged for the 15 days.Interest charged = Previous balance × Daily interest rate × Number of daysInterest charged =
0Therefore, the correct answer is D. $0.
