This is a simple interest problem. Let's solve it step-by-step.

### Formula for Simple Interest:
\[
I = P \times r \times t
\]
Where:
- \(I\) = Interest
- \(P\) = Principal (Initial amount) = £2610  
- \(r\) = Annual interest rate (as a decimal) = 0.5% = 0.005  
- \(t\) = Time in years = 9 years  

### Step 1: Plug in the values:
\[
I = 2610 \times 0.005 \times 9
\]

### Step 2: Perform the multiplication:
\[
I = 2610 \times 0.045 = 117.45
\]

### Final Answer:
Adam will get **£117.45** in interest after 9 years.

Do you have any questions or need further explanation?  
Here are 5 related questions to deepen your understanding:
1. What would the interest be if the interest rate increased to 1% per year?
2. How is simple interest different from compound interest?
3. How much total amount (principal + interest) will Adam have after 9 years?
4. If Adam added more money after 5 years, how would the calculation change?
5. How does the interest change if the bank calculates it semi-annually?

**Tip:** Simple interest grows linearly, meaning the interest earned each year stays the same.

Adam puts £2610 into a bank account. The account pays 0.5% simple interest each year. Work out how much interest Adam will get after 9 years.

Learn how to calculate the simple interest earned on a £2610 deposit at a 0.5% interest rate over 9 years. This solution involves basic percentage calculations and multiplication, perfect for students in Grades 6-8.
