To find Jerome's approximate six-month premium using the formula \( P = DB \):

1. Given:
- Driver risk factor, \( D = 1.02 \)
- Basic six-month premium, \( B = 500 \)

2. Calculate \( P \):
\[
P = DB = 1.02 \times 500 = 510
\]

3. Now, to find the monthly premium, divide the six-month premium by 6:
\[
\text{Monthly Premium} = \frac{P}{6} = \frac{510}{6} = 85
\]

Thus, Jerome's monthly premium will be **$85.00**.
