    C)  20 years           

    D)         30 years

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Let sum \[=x\]. Then, S.I. = x and Time = 10 years. \[\therefore \]  Rate \[=\left( \frac{100\times x}{x\times 10} \right)%=10%\] Now,   sum = x, S.I. = 2x, Rate = 10% \[\therefore \]     Time  \[=\left( \frac{100\times 2x}{x\times 10} \right)\] years = 20 years.
