Half-life of a radioactive substance $A$ is two times the half-life of another radioactive substance $B$. Initially, the number of nuclei of $A$ and $B$ are $N_A$ and $N_B$ respectively. After three half-lives of $A$, the number of nuclei of both are equal. Then $\frac{N_A}{N_B}$ is

$A$ radioactive substance of half-life $138.6 \text{ days}$ is placed in a box. After $n$ days, only $20\%$ of the substance is present. Then the value of $n$ is $[\ln(5) = 1.61]$.
