Every 56 seconds, the radioactive substance is divided in half.
224 / 56 = 4
We need to cut the substance in half 4 times.
896 / 2 = 448
448 / 2 = 224
224 / 2 = 112
112 / 2 = 56
After 224 seconds, there will be 56 grams of the radioactive substance left over
Step-by-step explanation:
q=r+rst
Rewrite the equation as
r+rst=q
Subtract r from both sides of the equation.
r st=q−r
Divide each term by rt
(r st )/rt=(q/rt)−(r/rt)
Cancel the common factor.
(
s=(q/rt)−1/t
