    For that one, use the same formula as for the one where I posted before.

    First, let for example the population be x.

    Just replace the Invested money by x. The total population should be 2x. Here, the 'n' which was in the previous formula becomes 't'. You just have to make 't' the subject of formula, then, solve for t.
