127) Thirty-six colonies grew in nutrient agar from 1.0 ml of undiluted sample in a standard plate count. How many cells were in the original sample?

36

Explanation:

Since the sample was undiluted the number of colonies is the number that grew on the nutrient agar which is 36 colonies. If it was diluted for example let say 0.1 ml from a dilution in which 1 ml of the sample was added to 9 ml of water, and it grew  colonies then  0.1 ml  yielded  6 colonies, 1 ml of the diluted sample will yield 60 colonies and 10 ml will have 600 colonies and therefore the 1 ml undiluted sample will have 600 colonies.
