Half Life = 0.3010 min

\mathrm{A\longrightarrow B}

From first order Reaction -
\mathrm{A= Ao\, e{-kt }\Rightarrow\, ln\, A= ln\, Ao\, -kt}
\mathrm{K= \frac{2.303}{t}\, log\frac{[Ao]}{[At]}\quad \quad t_{\frac{1}{2}}= \frac{k}{0.6} \; \frac{0.693}{k}}

\mathrm{\Rightarrow \frac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}= \frac{2.303}{2}\, log\left ( \frac{Ao}{At} \right )}             

\mathrm{log\, \frac{Ao}{At}= 2}
\mathrm{\therefore \frac{Ao}{At}= 10^{2}= 100}

Answer is 100
