In the circuit shown, $R_{1} = 100 \; \text{k} \Omega$ and $R_{2} = 1 \; \text{k} \Omega.$ If the base-to-emitter voltage of the $npn$ $\text{BJT}$ is $0.7 \; \text{V}$ and the collector-to-emitter voltage is $5.2 \; \text{V},$ the $\beta$ (current gain) of the $\text{BJT}$ is ___________ (round off to two decimal places)
