Answer:

Use the formula of half life to find the years.

Explanation:

You can find the half-life of a radioactive element using the formula: where t1/2 is the half-life of the particle, t is the elapsed time, N0 is the quantity in the beginning, and Nt is the quantity at time t. This equation is used in the calculator when solving for half-life time.
