Formula

Each month the balance accrues interest, every minimum is paid, then any extra payment goes to the smallest remaining balance. Payoff time is the number of months until every balance is zero, capped at 360 months.

Worked example

A single $100 balance at 0% APR with a $60 minimum and no extra payment takes 2 months and $100 total paid.
