What is the half-life of radio active substance

A sample of a radioactive substance used in detecting skin cancer produced 592 counts in one minute at the beginning of a test and acount of 451 counts in one minute after one day. If the background counts-per-minute (CPM) was 48, what is the half-life of this radio active substance?
