Didn't I do this a couple of days ago for you?
k = 0.693/t1/2
Substitute and solve for k.
ln(No/N) = kt
Set any convenient number, such as 100, for No.
N, then, is 1.1% No. For No = 100, N = 1.10
k = from above.
t = solve for t in seconds.

Thank you DrBob222,
the fraction left after t seconds is (1/2)^(t/1234)
(1/2)^(t/1234) = 0.011
t = 8028.84
