$A$ radioactive substance has a constant activity of $2000$ disintegrations/minute. The material is separated into two fractions,one of which has an initial activity of $1000$ disintegrations per minute while the other fraction decays with $t_{1/2} = 24 \ h$. The total activity in both samples after $48 \ h$ of separation is
