Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
A
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{Let principal = 10P}} \cr
& {\text{Interest = 10P}} \times \frac{{30}}{{100}} \cr
& \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{\text{ = 3P}} \cr
& {\text{According to the question,}} \cr
& {\text{Case (I)}} \cr
& \Rightarrow 3{\text{P = }}\frac{{{\text{10P}} \times {\text{R}} \times {\text{6}}}}{{100}} \cr
& \Rightarrow {\text{R = 5}}\% \cr
& {\text{Case (II)}} \cr
& {\text{Interest = Principal = 10P}} \cr
& \Rightarrow {\text{10P = }}\frac{{{\text{10P}} \times {\text{5}} \times {\text{t}}}}{{100}} \cr
& \Rightarrow {\text{t = 20 years}} \cr} $$
