Consider the given data
mass of the person = 66 kg
number of beta particles absorbed = 6
105
energy of each particle = 8.74
10-14 J
Therefore, the total energy absorbed by the person can be calculated as
and the energy absorbed by the person per kg can be calculated as
Hence, grays received by the person is
Hope it helps. Please let me know if you have any questions or doubts.

Calculate the radiation dosage (in rads) for an 67-kg person that is exposed for 6.0 seconds to a 3.0 Ci source of beta radiation. Assume that 100% of the radiation is absorbed and each beta particle has an energy of 1.3× 10–13 J.
Calculate the effective radiation dosage in sieverts for a 73-kg person who is exposed to 6.8 x 10' particles of alpha radiation. Only 75% of the radiation is absorbed. Assume each alpha particle has an energy of 6.9 x 10-13 J and that the RBE of the alpha particles is 15. Note that RBE is sometimes called the quality factor (Q).
