Therefore, the bones were 6612.5 years old at the time they were discovered.
<h3><u>Half life</u></h3>
Given that the radioactive element carbon-14 has a half-life of 5750 years, and a scientist determined that the bones from a mastodon had lost 57.5% of their carbon-14, to determine how old were the bones at the time they were discovered, the following calculation must be made:
- 50 = 5750
- 100 = 11500
- 57.5 = X
- 57.5 x 11500 / 100 = X
- 6612.5 = X
Therefore, the bones were 6612.5 years old at the time they were discovered.

Answer:
Assuming the question is: 3 + 1 16 [I see no "working below."
Step-by-step explanation:
3 + 1 16
48/16 + (16/16 + 1/16) [Make all numbers into fractions using 16 as the denominator. E.g. 48/16 = 3.
Add: 48/16 + (16/16 + 1/16)
(48+16+1)/16
=63/16
