    We use the formula of the half-life formula which is expressed as A = A₀ (1/2) ^ (t/h) where A is the final amount, A₀ is the initial amount of the substance, t is the time and h is the half-life of the substance which is equal to 3.8 days.

    A = A₀ (1/2) ^ (t/h)

    A = 73.9 (1/2) ^ (23 / 3.8)

    A = 24.81.11 g of radon-222 left
