A rock contains 0.697 mg of 206pb for every 1.000 mg of 238 U present. Assuming that no lead was originally present, that all the 206pb formed over the years has remained in the rock, and that the t1/2 number of nuclides in intermediate stages of decay between 238U and 206pb is negligible, calculate the age of the rock. (For 238U, 4.5x10⁹ years.) yr =
