Answer:

9.378*10^8

Explanation:

The number of phages in each cycle = 175

The number of host infected in each cycle = 175

The number of phages released by each hosts in each turn  = 175

There are total 4 cycle .

So the total number of phages that exist in a single plaque if 3 more lytic cycles occur

= 175*175*175*175\\= 175^4\\= 9.378*10^8
