Radioactive decay can be described by the following equation In A = In Ao – kt where Ao is the original amount of the substance, A is the amount of the substance remaining after time t, and k is a constant that is characteristic of the substance. For the radioactive isotope radon-222, k is 1.81 × 10-1 days. If the original amount of radon-222 in a sample is 69.9 mg, how much time is needed for the amount of radon- 222 that remains to fall to 37.8 mg? days
