A computer system has an L1L1 cache, an L2L2 cache, and a main memory unit connected as shown below. The block size in L1L1 cache is 44 words. The block size in L2L2 cache is 1616 words. The memory access times are 22 nanoseconds, 2020 nanoseconds and 200200 nanoseconds for L1L1 cache, L2L2 cache and the main memory unit respectively.

Figure 1

When there is a miss in both L1L1 cache and L2L2 cache, first a block is transferred from main memory to L2L2 cache, and then a block is transferred from L2L2 cache to L1L1 cache. What is the total time taken for these transfers?
