A file system uses an in-memory cache to cache disk blocks. The miss rate of the cache is shown in the figure. The latency to read a block from the cache is $$1$$ $$ms$$ and to read a block from the disk is $$10$$ $$ms.$$ Assume that the cost of checking whether a block exists in the cache is negligible. Available cache sizes are in multiples of $$10$$ $$MB.$$
The smallest cache size required to ensure an average read latency of less than $$6$$ $$ms$$ is _________ $$MB.$$
