Answer:

80 years

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Simple interest rate charged = 1.25% = 0.0125

Now,

Let principal amount be '$x'

we know,  Simple interest = Principal × Interest Rate × Time

Since the debt is doubled this means the interest  is equal to the principal amount

Therefore,

$x = $x × 0.0125 × Time

or

1 = 0.0125 × Time

or

Time = 1 ÷ 0.0125

or

Time = 80 years
