To solve this we are going to use the half life equation N(t)=N_{0} e^{( \frac{-0.693t}{t _{1/2} }) }
Where:
N_{0} is the initial sample
t is the time in years
t_{1/2} is the half life of the substance
N(t) is the remainder quantity after t years 

From the problem we know that:
N_{0} =100
t=200
t_{1/2} =1600

Lets replace those values in our equation to find N(t):
N(200) =100e^{( \frac{(-0.693)(200)}{1600}) }
N(200)=100e^{( \frac{-138.6}{1600} )}
N(200)=100e^{-0.086625}
N(200)=91.7

We can conclude that after 1600 years of radioactive decay, the mass of the 100-gram sample will be 91.7 grams.
