Let's say the APR is 5%. That means you get 5% of your balance back every year. The $100 balance would get $5 back, the $500 balance would get $25 back, and the $1000 balance would get $50 back. Therefore, all of the balances would take the same amount of time to double, and it would take all of them 20 years.
You could give all of the fractions a common denominator. You could also solve each of them (1/2=0.5) to see their value and order them through the value.
