1/2

Explanation:

so if u do the waffalineneh times by arcimate it would equivently be the answer on top

Answer 2

`(1)/(2)`

Explanation:

The half life is the amount of time it takes a substance to decay to half of its original amount.

Since the radioactive substance has a half life of 1000 years, there will be half of it left after 1000 years.

So, the fraction that will be left after 1000 years is
`(1)/(2)`
