Answer:

Number of year = 10 year

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Principal = $1,500

Rate of interest = 10% = 0.1

Amount = 2 × Principal = 2 × $1,500 = $3,000

Interest = Amount - Principal = $3,000 - $1,500 = $1,500

Find:

Number of year = ?

Computation:

Interest = Principal × Rate of interest × Number of year

⇒ $1,500 = $1,500 × 0.1 × Number of year

⇒ $1,500 = $150 × Number of year

⇒ Number of year = $1,500 / $150

⇒ Number of year = 10 year
