Question : At a certain rate of Simple Interest, a certain sum of money becomes double itself in 10 years. It will become triple of itself in:
Option 1: 15 years
Option 2: 18 years
Option 3: 20 years
Option 4: 30 years
Correct Answer: 20 years
Solution : Let the sum be P. Total amount after 10 years = 2P Simple Interest in 10 years = 2P – P = P If total amount = 3P, Simple Interest = 2P Using the unitary method, Since, in 10 years interest is P Therefore, 2P interest will be received in 20 years. Hence, the correct answer is 20 years.
