A half life means that half the sample decays.
If the sample size is 1 , then after one half life there would be x * 1/2 = 1/2 of the sample left.
For the 2nd half life, multiply 1/2 by 1/2 to get 1/4.
So after 2 half lives, there is 1/4 of the sample left, which means 3/4 of the sample decayed.
The answer is 3/4
8 can go into 32 four times !
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
1. multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators (n times 5/8 = n times 25/n)
2. cancel multiplied terms that are in the denominator (n times 5/8 = 25
3.re order terms so constants are on the left (5/8n =25)
4. combine multiplied terms into a single fraction (5n/8 = 25)
5. multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators (8 times 5n/8 = 8 times 25)
6. cancel multiplied terms that are in the denominator (5n=8 times 25)
7. multiply the numbers (5n = 8 times 25 5n= 200)
8. simplify (n=40)
