The math is exponential functions and continues half life. The formula is f(t)=a*e^(kt). You would need to find out the decay rate of the carbon 14 found in living tissue. A is how much C-14 you start with and t is the time. K is the rate which comes from the formula F(x)=a*b^x. B=R-1. R is the percent of decay. Ln(b)=k

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
