The answer is 12 years
[tex]\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned}\\\\ I = Prt\qquad \begin{cases} I=\textit{interest earned}\to &\$21600\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to& \$30000\\ r=rate\to 6\%\to \frac{6}{100}\to &0.06\\ t=years \end{cases} \\\\\\ 21600=(30000)(0.06)t\implies \cfrac{21600}{(30000)(0.06)}=t\implies 12=t[/tex]
