I = P x r x t P is the principal amount, $840.00. r is the interest rate, 10% per year, or in decimal form, 10/100=0.1. t is the time involved, 1 month time periods. Since the interest rate is "per year" and the time interval is 1 month, we need to convert your time interval into "year" as well. Do this by dividing your time, 1- month(s), by 12, since there's 12 months in 1 year. So, t is 0.0833333....year time periods. To find the simple interest, we multiply 840 × 0.1 × 0.0833333 to get that the interest is: $7.00.
