88226Ra_{88}^{226}\text{Ra} decays to 82206Pb_{82}^{206}\text{Pb} through a series of α\alpha and β−\beta^{-} emissions. Which combination of decays could account for this transformation? a) 5 α\alpha decays and 2 β−\beta^{-} decays b) 4 α\alpha decays and 2 β−\beta^{-} decays c) 5 α\alpha decays and 4 β−\beta^{-} decays d) 5 α\alpha decays and 6 β−\beta^{-} decays
