Answer 2

$244.51

Explanation:

Credit card payment =$5390

After paying $2300 from savings account,

Remaining payment left = 5390-2300 = $3090

APR = 16.5% or 0.165

Time (t) = 14 months = 14/12 years

Using credit card payment calculator,

Monthly payment = $244.15

Hence, minimum monthly payment to be made to pay off the whole debt in 14 months = $244.15
