Working out minimum payment

Hi all, I just got a 0% credit card with virgin. It has a balance of £3500. Please can someone help me work out the rough minimum payment due? I’m not good at working these things out! Thanks

    The minimum payment is %1. So if the initial balance is £3500, the first payment will be £35. Since the new balance will be £3465, the next payment will be £34.65. And so on until the balance drops below £2500, when £25 will be taken from this point. 
  • Thanks very much for the reply. I understand this now
