Carbon dating determines the approximate age of an object made from materials that wereonce alive by measuring the remaining percentage of a radioactive isotope, carbon-14. The age is calculated Using the formula A=lnP0.000121A = - \frac { \ln P } { 0.000121 } where P is the percentage of remaining carbon-14 (in decimal form). A specimen is determined to Be 3800 years old. What is the percentage of remaining carbon-14? Round to the nearest tenth of a Percent.
