Answer:

half-life=T= 36.9 years

Explanation:

As we know that

N ( t ) = N ( 0 ) ⋅ 0.5 ^(t/ T )

N ( 0 ) =the number of atoms you start with=20 gram

and  N ( t )=  the number of atoms left=0.625 grams

after a certain time=t=184.5 years

T=half life of a nuclide=?

Putting value in above equation we get

half-life=T= 36.9 years
