Let the principal be x

SI = x/9

Let Rate = r%

Time = r years (since time is same as rate)

SI = P.R.T/100

x/9 = x.r.r/100

r² = 100/9

r = √100/9

r = 10/3 %

We can take the value of principal as x, so SI is equals to  x/9.  

We can take the interest rate as r%.

The total time duration is r years.  

We need to calculate the percentage based on the sum of money.

SI = P.R.T/100

x/9 = x.r.r/100

r² = 100/9

r = √100/9

r = 10/3 %
