Answer:

Assuming the question is how much interest you will pay in the given time frame with the given terms.

Explanation:

Borrowed $300

18% per yr = 18/12 = 1.5% per month

You borrowed for 6 months so you will end up paying 1.5%*6 =9% in interest

$300*(9% or 0.09) = $27 in interest paid + $300 in principal paid if paid off in 6 months.

Total $327.

If this was an economics class you would also have to factor in the depreciation of the principal amount month to month with minimum payments but I am guessing this is just a basic question so the above answer is correct enough.
