Answer:
HERE IS YOUR ANSWER
Step-by-step explanation:
◆ Answer -
Rate of interest = 20 p.c.p.a.
● Explanation -
Let P be amount of money invested and r be rate of interest.
Total = P × (100+r×t)/100
Given that certain amount of money doubles in 5 years.
2P = P × (100+5r)/100
2 = (100+5r)/100
200 = 100 + 5r
5r = 200 - 100
5r = 100
r = 100/5
r = 20 %
Hence, rate of interest is 20 p.c.p.a.
