A population of particles decays such that the quantity N(t)N(t)N(t) at time ttt follows the rule N(t)=N0⋅e−ktN(t) = N_0 \cdot e^{-kt}N(t)=N0​⋅e−kt. If the decay constant kkk is 0.20.20.2, how many times longer does it take for the quantity to reach 10%10\%10% of its original value compared to the time it takes to reach 50%50\%50% of its original value?
