You've worked out a line of credit arrangement that allows you to borrow up to $$55$

intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to $2$ decimal

places, e$.$g$.,32\mathrm{.}16.)$

b$.$ Suppose you need $$23$ million today and you repay it in $6$ months. How much interest

will you pay? $($Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to $2$

decimal places, e$.$g$.,32\mathrm{.}16.)$
