Answer:

1.5625

Explanation:

the half life of an isotope is the amount of time it takes for one half of the isotope to decay

28650 is 5 half lives (28650÷5730=5)

after one half life the mass will be 25 grams

after two half lives the mass will be 12.5 grams

after 3 half lives the mass will be 6.25 grams

after 4 half lives the mass will be 3.125 grams

after 5 half lives the mass will be 1.5625 grams
