Answer:

At a 4 percent annual growth rate in GDP per capita, it will take 18 years for GDP per capita to double.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • GDP stands for the gross domestic products. It is the basis to monitor the value of good and service in the market.
  • According to rule of 70:

Number of years to double =
(70)/(annual growth rate)

=
(70)/(4)

≈ 18 years

In this way in total of 18 years the GDP will be double at the constant annual growth rate of 4%.
