Im having trouble understanding Half life and what not...
1.If each roll of the dice represents 10,000 years, what is the approximate half-life (in years) of the element Lokium?
2. If each roll of the dice is 10,000 years, what is the approximate half-life (in years) of the element Odinium?

You got me. There must be something missing here. I suspect it's how many times have you rolled the dice plus other interesting tidbits of the problem.
well for the first data table I did this
Lokium Trial 1 – Lokium
Starting 20 0 20 0
First Shake (10,000 years) 17
Second (20,000 years) 15 2
Third (30,000 years) 11 4
Fourth (40,000 years) 9 2
Fifth (50,000 years) 8 1 8
Sixth (60,000 years) 4 1
Seventh (70,000 years) 3 1
Eighth (80,000 years) 0 3

Those numbers you wrote have no meaning to me. What's the 20 0 20 0 and what's the 17 after 10,000 years. Where did you get the 17?
