Answer»

Answer:

we KNOW, HALF life of P-32 is 14.29 days

\frac{1}{2} part \: will \: disintegrate \: in \: 14.29 \: dys \\  (\frac{1}{2} of \:  \frac{1}{2} ) =  \frac{1}{4}  \: will \: diintegrate \: in \: 14.29 \: days \\  (\frac{1}{2} of \:  \frac{1}{4}) =  \frac{1}{8}  will \: disintegrate \: in \: 14.29 \: dys \\  (\frac{1}{2} of\frac{1}{8} ) =  \frac{1}{16} will \: disintegrate \: in \: 14.29 \: days \\  \frac{1}{2} of \:  \frac{1}{16}  =  \frac{1}{32} will \: disintegrate \: in \: 14.29 \: days

so, TOTAL time taken=(14.29×5) days=71.45 days
