An innovative rural public health program is reducing infant mortality in a certain West African country. Pretend the program in Senegal has been reducing infant mortality at a rate 8.4 % per year. How long will it take for infant mortality to be reduced by 40 %?

sorry for the delay but if you take 8.4 times 5 you get 42 so the answer is about 5 years but I'm not exactly sure.
