The decay of 40K to 40Ar is used to date igneous rocks around fossil deposits to bracket the age of the fossils. When 40K decays, 10.9% of the time it produces 40Ar. The half-life of 40K is 1.248 x 109 years. In a given rock sample, 281.8 nmol of 40K is measured and 7.25 nmol of 40Ar is measured. What is the age of the rock in years
