Real interest rate is equal to nominal interest rate minus the inflation rate. Real interest rate = Nominal interest rate - Inflation rate
Example:
An investor is earning a 6.5% interest rate locked for one year and the inflation rate for that year is 2%, the Real interest rate is 4.5%.
Calculation: nominal interest rate - inflation rate = Real interest rate (6.5% - 2% = + 4.5%).
In this case the investor is making some profit, 4.5%.
An investor is earning a 3.2% interest rate locked for one year and the inflation rate for that year is 3.5%, the Real interest rate is minus 0.3%.
Calculation: nominal interest rate - inflation rate = Real interest rate (3.2% - 3.5% = - 0.3%).
In this case the investor is loosing 0.3%.
When Real Interest rate is negative value, inflation could accelerate and get out of control. This seems to be world wide problem.
