JEE Advanced 2023 Physics question on Atoms and Nuclei

In a radioactive decay process, the activity is defined as A=−dNdtA = -\dfrac{dN}{dt}, where N(t)N(t) is the number of radioactive nuclei at time tt. Two radioactive sources, S1S_1 and S2S_2 have same activity at time t=0t = 0. At a later time, the activities of S1S_1 and S2S_2 are A1A_1 and A2A_2, respectively. When S1S_1 and S2S_2 have just completed their 3rd3^{\text{rd}} and 7th7^{\text{th}} half-lives, respectively, the ratio A1/A2A_1/A_2 is __________.
