Standard deviation of the activity


Using a counter having an efficiency of 38% and negligible background, a technician records a total of 1812 counts from a long-lived radioactive source in 2 min.

How long would the source have to be counted in order for the standard deviation of the activity (0.933 Bq) to be 1% of its mean.
