how to pass value from valraible in to xpath

Question

I have xpath : ".//*[@id='ctl00_ctl00_MainContent_ChildContent1_frmClear_dgCashed_ctl65_chkSelect']"

I have value in variable v = 70,

i want to change xpath = ".//*[@id='ctl00_ctl00_MainContent_ChildContent1_frmClear_dgCashed_ctlv_chkSelect']"

I am using xpath 1.0, not xpath 2.0

Can any one please help me

Please check if the below code will work by passing the value v at runtime

public void selectChk(String v) throws Exception {
try {
    driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//* [@id='ctl00_ctl00_MainContent_ChildContent1_frmClear_dgCashed_ctl"+v+"_chkSelect']"))
            .click();
} catch (AssertionError Ae) {
    Ae.printStackTrace();
}
}
