The profit grows exponentially


P(t)=P0ektP(t)=P_0e^{kt}

The initial amount has doubled In 3hours


P(3)=P0ek(3)=2P0P(3)=P_0e^{k(3)}=2P_0

3k=ln23k=\ln2

k=13ln2k=\dfrac{1}{3}\ln2

Then


P(t)=P02t/3P(t)=P_02^{t/3}

P(9)=P029/3=8P0P(9)=P_02^{9/3}=8P_0

The initial amount of money will be 8 times itself in 9 hours.
