Problem

A freshly prepared sample of a radioisotope of half-life 1386 s has activity 10310^3 disintegrations per second. Given that ln⁡2=0.693\ln 2 = 0.693 , the fraction of the initial number of nuclei (expressed in nearest integer percentage) that will decay in the first 80 s after preparation of the sample is [Adv. 2013-I]
