\[\frac{ 3 }{ 125}?\]

4 is the inital quantity 0.006 is the rate x is the time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 4*0.006

thomaster (thomaster):

when you do that you get the decay for time = 1 I think the rate is just 0.006 In percents thats 0.6% (times 100)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

60 %

thomaster (thomaster):

no 0.6% :P 0.006 times 100 = 0.6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okey :P
