This was a pretty interesting project you did here! thought it was clever of you to use dice to visually show the process of radioactive decay. Nice job :)

It’s a kind of game, where the probabilities to get a six decreases as well the number of dices is decreasing and gives us a good idea about the decay of radiation, because as the number of active atoms decreases, the probability to be hit by radiation decreases too. Good image.

I did not know that the radioactive decay is a random process. Wonderful project.

yep, it is. That is why they measure the amount of time a radioactive substance takes to decay using their "half life", which is how long it takes for half of them to decay.

Thanks very much, goch.
