This can be solved by the following equation:
(1)
Where:
is the quantity of atoms of carbon-14 left after time 
is the initial quantity of atoms of C-14 in the mammal hide
is the rate constant for carbon-14 radioactive decay
is the time elapsed
On the other hand,
has a relation with the half life
of the C-14, which is
:
(2)

(3)
Applying natural logarithm on both sides of the equation:
(4)
(5)
Isolating
:
(6)
(7) This is the age of the mammal hide
