$A$ small quantity of solution containing $Na^{24}$ radionuclide of activity $1 \, \mu Ci$ is injected into the blood of a person. $A$ sample of the blood of volume $1 \, cm^3$ taken after $5 \, hours$ shows an activity of $298$ disintegrations per minute. What will be the total volume of the blood in the body of the person? Assume that the radioactive solution mixes uniformly in the blood of the person. (Take $1 \, Ci = 3.7 \times 10^{10}$ disintegrations per second and $e^{-\lambda t} = 0.7927$; where $\lambda$ is the disintegration constant and $t = 5 \, hours$.)
