*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  A\ =\ Pe^{rt}]


Doubling the investment means that *[tex \Large \frac{A}{P}\ =\ 2], so if the period of performance is 3 years:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  e^{3r}\ =\ 2]


Solve for *[tex \Large r].  You should get just a little north of 23%.  Good luck finding that rate of return.
