44 years!
geez- that is the definition of a half-life ...
22 year
No, the correct answer is 44 years.

After one half-life, the sample will have reduced to 50% of its original value. So, if the half-life of the sample is 44 years, then after 44 years, the sample will have reduced to 50% of its original value.
