We can calculate the age by using the formula: final amount=initial amount*(1/2)^(time/half-life), or t=ln(final amount/initial amount)/(-0.693)*half-life. The half life of C-14 is 5730 years, and final amount=initial amount is 51% or 0.51, so t=ln(0.51)/(-0.693)*5730=5567 years approximately.

SVEN [57.7K]
There are many ways to work this out. One way could be:

Add up:
1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 = 3/4

Find 3/4 of 8 so;
8 / 4 = 2
2 x 3 = 6

Find what's remaining:
8 - 6 = 2

So Mr.Greg has sandwiches left.
Hope it helped :)
