Answer:

dilution = 2.5*10^6

Explanation:

Given:

- Number of colonies N = 100 cfu

- The Volume of cells = 25*10^7 cells / ml

Find:

the final dilution

Solution:

- The expression relating the the colonies forming unit with cells//volume is given as:

                                       Bacteria/ml = cfu*dilution

                                       dilution = Volumetric cells/ cfu

                                       dilution = 25*10^7 / 100

                                       dilution = 2.5*10^6
