Approximately 7 years. The general rule is to divide 70 by the interest rate to get an approximation of how long it will take to double. If the interest is compounded annual you will have $194.88 after 7 years, and $214.37 after 8 years. Though if interest is compounded more regularly (ie. monthly or daily) this will grow at a slightly faster rate.
It will take 11.9 (or 12) years.
