CHAPTER-Simple Interest

INTRODUCTION TO SIMPLE INTEREST

Sometimes, we need a large amount of money for bigger purposes such as


buying a house, buying a car, paying fee for higher education etc. If we do
not readily have that much of money then we have to borrow it from money
lenders, banks or co-operative credit societies for a particular period of time
along with a condition of paying some extra money at a particular rate. This
borrowed money is called loan.
For example, Jatin borrowed Rs.10000 from Shashank. He promised to
give him back Rs.11000 after one year.
Here, Rs.10000 is loan taken by Jatin from Shashank.
Now, the question is that why did Jatin promise to pay more money
than he borrowed?

Have you heard about interest? Let us suppose that someone borrows
some money for a specific time period. Then, the borrower has to pay
some extra money along with the original amount after the passage of that
fixed time period. This extra money that is paid by the borrower is
called interest.

In the given example, extra money paid = Rs.(11000 − 10000) = Rs.1000


Thus, here, he paid Rs.1000 as the interest for one year.
The original amount of money borrowed is called principal. In this case,
Rs. 10000 is the principal.

The total amount that has to be paid back after the specific time period is
called amount. In the above example, Rs.11000 is the amount.

Thus, we can conclude that

Amount = Principal + Interest

Interest = Amount − Principal

Principal = Amount − Interest

TERMS USED IN SIMPLE INTEREST

1. SIMPLE INTEREST: It is the extra money, which the lender gets from the
borrower, in consideration of the sum (money borrowed) used by the
borrower. The simple interest (S.I) and the interest (I) mean the same.
2. PRINCIPAL (P): It is the sum (money) which the lender gives to a borrower.
3. TIME PERIOD (T): It is the time for which the sum (principal) is borrowed or
lent.
4. RATE OR RATE OF INTEREST (R): It is the interest for a fixed period on every
Rs. 100.For example, Rate of interest is 18% per year means,on Rs.100 the
interest in one year is Rs.18.
5. AMOUNT: It is the sum of the Principal and the Interest on it.
Amount = Principal + Interest.

FORMULAE USED IN SIMPLE INTEREST

SOLVED EXAMPLE 1 :

Find the simple interest and amount on Rs.8700 at the end of one year
at the rate of 20% per year

Solution:
Principal (P) = Rs. 8700
Rate of interest (R) = 20%
Time period (T) = 1 year

Therefore, interest (I) payable at the end of the year = Rs.1740


Now, amount (A) payable at the end of the year = P + I
= Rs.8700 + Rs.1740
= Rs. 10440

6. What sum will earn an interest of Rs.480 in 3 years, at 16% per
year?
7. In what time will Rs.2100 fetch an interest of Rs. 525 at 5% p.a.?
8. How long will it take Rs.1500 to become Rs. 2040 at 8% per
annumsimple interest?
9. A sum of Rs. 1780 becomes Rs. 2136 in 4 years, find the rate of
interest.

SOLVED EXAMPLE 4:

Find the sum which will amount to Rs. 700 in 5 years at 8% p.a.

Solution:

Amount = Rs.700, Rate(R)=8%p.a.,Time(T)=5 years

Let the principal (P) =Rs.100

𝑃×𝑅×𝑇 100×8×5
Then, S.I = = = 𝑅𝑠. 40,
100 100

Amount (A) = P +S.I = Rs(100+40)= Rs.140

If amount is Rs 140,then principal = Rs.100

100×700
And, if amount is Rs.700,then principal= = 𝑅𝑠. 500
140

Solve the following:


10. What sum of money will amount to Rs. 992 at 4%p.a. in 6
years?
11. What sum will amount to Rs.1292 in 3 years at 12% per
annum simple interest?

SOLVED EXAMPLE 5:
In what time will a sum of money double itself at 8%p.a.?
Solution:
Let the principal (P) = Rs.100
Amount (A) =Rs.100 x 2= Rs.200
S.I.=A – P
=Rs.(200-100)=Rs.100
Rate(R) =8%
