![I have diluted my culture 9x10^(-5)
times. What was the volume of the
stock and the volume of the media
for dilution 3 if the total volume of
each sub-dilution was 10 ml? Round

PS: I may not have followed the
laboratorial principle of using at

dilution (In truth: the numbers are
produced by a random number
generator).
Dilution 1: v(stock) = 0.2 ml,
