Maharashtra Board Solutions Class 7-Maths (Practice Set 41): Chapter 10- Bank and Simple Interest

Maharashtra Board 7th Maths Chapter 10, Class 7 Maths Chapter 10 solutions

Question 1.
If the interest on Rs 1700 is Rs 340 for 2 years, the rate of interest must be__.

(A) 12%
(B) 15%
(C) 4%
(D) 10%
Solution:
(D) 10%

Hint:
∴  Total interest =P×R×T100
∴ 340=1700×R×2100
∴ R = 10%

Question 2.
If the interest on Rs 3000 is Rs 600 at a certain rate for a certain number of years, what would the interest be on Rs 1500 under the same conditions?

(A) Rs 300
(B) Rs 1000
(C) Rs 700
(D) Rs 500
Solution:
(A) Rs 300

Hint:
The interest on Rs 3000 at certain rate of interest is Rs 600.
Let us suppose the interest on Rs 1500 at the same rate is x.
∴ 6003000=x1500
∴ x = Rs 300

Question 3.
Javed deposited Rs 12000 at 9 p.c.p.a in a bank for some years, and withdrew his interest every year. At the end of the period, he had received altogether Rs 17,400. For how many years had he deposited his money?
Solution:

Here, P = Rs 12000, R = 9 p.c.p.a and amount = Rs 17400
Amount = Principal + Interest
∴17400 = 12000 + Interest
∴Interest = 17400 – 12000 = Rs 5400
∴  Total interest =P×R×T100
5400=12000×9×T100
∴ 5400×10012000×9=T
∴ T = 5 years
∴ Javed had deposited the amount for 5 years.

Question 4.
Lataben borrowed some money from a bank at a rate of 10 p.c.p.a interest for 212 years to start a cottage industry. If she paid Rs 10250 as total interest, how much money had she borrowed?
Solution:

Here, R = 10 p.c.p.a, T = 2.5 years, I = Rs 10250
Maharashtra Board Class 7 Maths Solutions Chapter 10 Banks and Simple Interest Practice Set 41 1
∴ P = Rs 41000
∴ Lataben had borrowed an amount of Rs 41000 from the bank.

Question 5.
Fill in the blanks in the table.

PrincipalRate of interest (p.c.p.a.)TimeInterestAmount
i.Rs 42007%3 years
ii.6%4 yearsRs 1200
iii.Rs 80005%Rs 800
iv.5%Rs 6000Rs 18000
v.212 % 25 yearsRs 2400

Solution:
i.  Total interest =P×R×T100
= 4200×7×3100
= Rs 882
Amount = Principal + interest
= 4200 + 882
= Rs 5082

ii.  Total interest =P×R×T100
∴ 1200=P×6×4100
∴ 1200×1006×4=P
∴ P = Rs 5000
Amount = Principal + interest
= 5000 + 1200
= Rs 6200

iii.  Total interest =P×R×T100
∴ 800=8000×5×T100
∴ 800×1008000×5=T
∴ T = 2 years
Amount = Principal + interest
= 8000 + 800
= Rs 8800

iv. Amount = Principal + interest
∴ 18000 = Principal + 6000
∴ Principal = Rs 12000
 Total interest =P×R×T100
∴ 6000=12000×5×T100
∴ 6000×10012000×5=T
∴ T = 10 years

v. R = 212 % = 2.5 %
∴  Total interest =P×R×T100
∴ 2400=P×2.5×5100
∴ 2400=P×25×5100×10
∴ 2400×10×10025×5=P
∴ P = Rs 19200
Amount = Principal + interest
= 19200 + 2400
= Rs 21600
