The daughter isotope is 87.5 percent if the half-life of the isotope is 150 million years how old is the sample?
To find the age of the sample, we need to determine how many half-lives have passed based on the daughter isotope percentage. Since the daughter isotope is 87.5% present, it means 12.5% has decayed from the parent isotope. Since 1 half-life would result in 50% decay, we can divide 12.5% by 50% to get 0.25 half-lives. Therefore, the sample is approximately 150 million years (half-life) x 0.25 = 37.5 million years old.
How many animals live in the rainforests?

How many ice ages in the last million years?
There have been around eight ice ages in the last million years, with each ice age lasting for tens of thousands of years. These ice ages were characterized by the expansion of glaciers and ice sheets over large portions of the Earth's surface, resulting in cooler temperatures and lower sea levels.
A rock originally had 1500 atoms of U-235 and it now has 750 how old is it?
For a rock to have started with 1500 atoms of any element and now have 750 it has undergone radioactive decay equal to one full half life (i.e. there are half the number of atoms now than at the beginning).Uranium-235 has a half life of 7.038×108 years.As such, the rock is 7.038×108 or 703 million years old.
