Solution: 
                      		$$\eqalign{
  & {\text{Let}}\,{\text{Banker's}}\,{\text{Discount}}  \cr 
  &  = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\,10  \cr 
  & {\text{Then,}}\,{\text{Banker's}}\,{\text{Gain}}  \cr 
  &  = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\,\frac{1}{5} \times 10  \cr 
  &  = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\,2  \cr 
  & T.D. = \left( {B.D. - B.G.} \right)  \cr 
  & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = \left( {10 - 2} \right)  \cr 
  & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\,8  \cr 
  & {\text{Sum}} = \frac{{10 \times 8}}{{10 - 8}}  \cr 
  & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = \frac{{80}}{2}  \cr 
  & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = {\text{Rs}}{\text{.}}\,40 \cr} $$
S.I. on Rs. 40 for 2.5 year is Rs. 10
$$\eqalign{
  & {\text{Therefore,}}  \cr 
  & {\text{Rate}} = \frac{{100 \times 10}}{{40 \times 2.5}}  \cr 
  & \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 10\%  \cr} $$
