How long would it take to pay off the $2,000 balance if you paid the minimum each month?

I am not sure if I understand this correctly. What does this mean exactly?

So you have $2000 and 2,7% of this is charged, i.e. 2000–54 = $1946 is left after the first month. For this a yearly interest rate of 18% is applied, i.e. 1,5% per month, so $29,19 is added to get $1975,19. Is it like this? Or is the interest added once per year, i.e. after twelve 2,7% charges finally 18% is added to the remaining capital? Please explain.
