Question
$\mathrm{t}_{87.5}$ is the time required for the reaction to undergo $87.5 \%$ completion and $\mathrm{t}_{50}$ is the time required for the reaction to undergo $50 \%$ completion. The relation between $\mathrm{t}_{87.5}$ and $\mathrm{t}_{50}$ for a first order reaction is $\mathrm{t}_{87.5}=x \times \mathrm{t}_{50}$ The value of $x$ is ___________. (Nearest integer)
