This document provides a lesson on simple interest, including definitions, formulas, and examples. It begins with an introduction to simple interest and the basic formula to calculate interest (I=Prt). It then provides examples of using the formula to find interest and maturity value for various loans. The next section distinguishes between actual and approximate time, showing how to calculate both. The final section defines ordinary and exact interest, providing the formulas and an example of calculating both types of interest. The overall document serves as a tutorial to teach students how to calculate simple interest using different time periods and interest rate conventions.
