Work it out on paper first. It is fine to get stuck or make a mistake: that is how we learn. When you are ready, go through the solution one step at a time, and check each step against your own.
Step 1. The rate constant. .
Step 2. Another 15 min. The same time brings the same factor, . So .
Check. With the equation: , and .
Answer: , and after in all.
