Hi Clifford and Aaron. Not bad! There’s are small corrections to make in your equation 1 and your equation 2. Since it takes $t_p$ units of time to decay to $\frac{1}{p}$ of the original amount, equation 1 should read $Q_0e^{k t_p} = \frac{1}{p} Q_0$ (and similarly for equation 2). That is, you want to multiply $Q_0$ by $\frac{1}{p}$ instead of dividing by it
