Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Rs x be the sum, then according to question, the amount will be Rs3x. Then simple interest will be,

S.I.=Amount−Principle

=3x−x

=2x

The time is given as 16 years.

S.I.= P×R×T

         100  

​2x= x×R×16

        100

R= 2x×100

      x×16

R=12.5%
