A 120-g sample of carbon from living matter decays at the


Solve the given problem:

Problem: A 12.0-g sample of carbon from living matter decays at the rate of 177.5decays/minute due to the radioactive 14C in it.

1- What will be the decay rate of this sample in 1000 years?

2- What will be the decay rate of this sample in 50000 years?

Show all work, use additional paper if necessary. Thanks.
