The technetium-99 isotope has a half-life of 6.0 hours If a 100mg sample of technetium-99 were injected into a patient how many milligrams would still be present after one day?

I'll take a wild guess and say 6.25mg. if that's not right I too would like to know how to compute. I had a dose today but don't know the amount they infused.
