    Base on my research the radioactive isotope X-133 has a half-life of 5 days. So base on the given it decreases by a factor of 1024, it represents 10 halvings. To get how long will it take for the 133 54xe to decay, just multiply 5 days with 10 halvings. The answer is 50 days for the 133 54xe to decay.
