Answer:
Step-by-step Let the principal be x
Time = 10 years
Amount after 10 years gets doubled
So amount = 2x
simple interest = amount - principal
simple interest = 2x - x = x
Rate per annum = SI × 100 / P × T
= x × 100 / x × 10
100x/ 10x = 10
So rate per annum = 10%.
Hope my answer helps you

A sum of money double itself in 10 years. find the rate of interest.......
Let the principal be =x
Then,in 2 years the amount will be- x×2=2x
Now,interest= amount - principal=2x - x = 1x
Time= 10 year
Rate=?
Now, RATE= interest/principal×100/time
So, R=1X/X × 100/10
