    Explanation:

    The potassium-argon dating is a method used to determine the time of origin of a certain rock by measuring the quantities of potassium and argon in the rock and then finding the ratio between the two of them, the method is based on the decay of Potassium 40 to Argon 40 and if it is too old it also can decay to Calcium 40.
