Examples:
1. Tina takes a loan of £250. She agrees to
pay a simple interest of 6% every month.
 a) How much is each interest payment?
b) How much interest will she pays in one
year?
Solutions
P = £250
R= 6%
T = 1 month
S.I = ?
a) S.I = £250 x 6 x 1
………………………….. = £ 15
100

b.) £15 x 12 = £ 180

2. Suppose you deposit $400 in a savings

account. The interest rate is 5% per year.
a) What is the amount of interest in 6
years
b) What is the balance in six years.
Solution

i) S.I = 400 x 5 x 6
………………………. = $120
100
ii) A = $400 + $120 = $520
