The same interest rate as what? We're not exactly looking at the same set of questions you are. Y'know?

What can we say based on this limited information?

25000 = 300r^t
250/3 = r^t
log(250/3) = t log(r)
t = log(250/3) / log(r)

25000 = 500r^T
.....
T = log(50) / log(r)

so T/t = log(50) / log(250/3)

we can compute the RATIO of the times, but not the times themselves, not without the interest rate.
