Maharashtra State Board Class 7th Maths Chapter 10 Bank and Simple Interest Set 10.1 Solution

Question 1.
If Rihanna deposits Rs 1500 in the school fund at 9 p.c.p.a for 2 years, what is the total amount she will get?
Solution:
Here, P = Rs 1500, R = 9 p.c.p.a , T = 2 years

= 1500 x 9 x 2
= Rs 270
∴ Total amount = Principal + Interest
= 1500 + 270
= Rs 1770
∴ Rihanna will get a total amount of Rs 1770.

Question 2.
Jethalal took a housing loan of Rs 2,50,000 from a bank at 10 p.c.p.a. for 5 years. What is the yearly interest he must pay and the total amount he returns to the bank?
Solution:
Here, P = Rs 250000, R = 10 p.c.p.a., T = 5 years

= 2500 x 10 x 5
= Rs 1,25,000
∴ Yearly interest = Total interest ÷ Time = 1,25,000 ÷ 5 = Rs 25000
Total amount to be returned = Principal + Total interest
= 250000 + 125000 = Rs 375000
∴ The yearly interest is Rs 25,000 and Jethalal will have to return Rs 3,75,000 to the bank.

Question 3.
Shrikant deposited Rs 85,000 for 2 years at 7 p.c.p.a. in a savings bank account. What is the total
interest he received at the end of the period?
Solution:

= 85 x 7 x 25
= Rs 14875
∴ The total interest received by Shrikant at the end of the period is Rs 14875.

Question 4.
At a certain rate of interest, the interest after 4 years on Rs 5000 principal is Rs 1200. What would be the interest on Rs 15000 at the same rate of interest for the same period?
Solution:
The interest on Rs 5000 after 4 years is Rs 1200.
Let us suppose the interest on Rs 15000 at the same rate after 4 years is Rs x.
Taking the ratio of interest and principal, we get

= Rs 3600
∴ The interest received on Rs 15000 is Rs 3600.

Question 5.
If Pankaj deposits Rs 1,50,000 in a bank at 10 p.c.p.a. for two years, what is the total amount he will get from the bank?
Solution:
Here, P = 150000, R = 10 p.c.p.a., T = 2 years

= Rs 30000
∴ Total amount = Principal + Total Interest
= 150000 + 30000
= Rs 180000
∴ Pankaj will receive Rs 180000 from the bank.
