7/5 or 1.4 batches

Step-by-step explanation:

batches                                Sugar used

     1                                           10

     x                                           14

cross multiply

10x=14

x=14/10

x=1.4 or 7/5

7/5

x=1.4 or 7/5

step-by-step explanation:

the original amount doesn't ''re just looking for the time it takes for 1/2 of the substance to we have

(1/2) =)     take the ln   of both sides

ln (1/2)   = )   and we can write

ln(1/2) = ) lne     and lne   = 1     so we have

ln(1/2) = -.1092t     divide both sides by -.1092

t = ln(1/2)/-.1092 = about 6.347 days = about 6.3 days (rounded)
