The half-life is 29 years.
116 : 29 = 4
So we will have 4 periods of half-life:
( 1/2 )^4 = 1/16
150 g * 1/16 = 9.375 g
Answer:
9.375 g of strontium -90 will remain after 116 years.

tekilochka [14]

Let X be a random variable denoting the amount of winnings in any given round of the game. There is some probability p of winning where P(X=99,500)=p, while P(X=-500)=1-p, assuming these are the only two possible outcomes. So we have

\mathbb E[X]=\displaystyle\sum_xxP(X=x)=99,500p-500(1-p)=100

100,000p-500=100\implies p=\dfrac3{500}=0.006
