How many months would it take for the debt to double on a


Recall the following formula that we derived for use in simple interest loans. 

P=M/1+RT

How many months would it take for the debt to double on a simple interest loan whose annual rate is 8.12%? In other words, find the doubling time. 

Hint: divide both sides of the equation by M and think about the ratio P/M when M is twice as big as P. 

Round your answer to the nearest month.
