Answer:

So, Rate = 6.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Principal value = P

⇒ Amount = 2P

Also, Simple Interest = Amount - Principal

Now, Simple Interest = Principal × Rate × Time

⇒ Amount - Principal = Principal × Rate × Time

⇒ 2P - P = P × Rate × 16

⇒ P = P × Rate × 16

⇒ Rate = 1/16 = 0.0625

So, Rate = 0.0625 × 100 = 6.25%
