    Rate in general is a measure of the speed of change of a quantity. We need to calculate by how much the GDP changed. Taking the difference,

    $14,291.5 billion - $14,028.7 billion=$262.8 billion

    Then, we see that his change happened over 1 year. Hence, the rate of change (rate of growth since it increases) of GDP is $262.8 billion/1 year = $262.8 billion/year.
