I've got a serious mental block and cant work this out.

What does ml-1 equal? I am not too bad with scientific notation since we've just come onto it. But I can't work it out...would it be nanolitres? centilitres?

mL is just 10^-3 liters and you don't move to another prefix until you get to 10^-6 which is micro, and then nano is 10^-9. So neither you just call it 0.1 milliliters.

Basically im working out total cell count for a liquid culture of S. cerevisiae

I need to work out Cell per ml of original culture, formatted in cells ml^-1.

Number of cells per mm^3 is 7,500.

In class I worked out the answer for cells per ml of original culture as 7.5x10^7 ml^-1...but i'm not sure how I got to that answer.

EDIT: Bear in mind that 1000mm^3 = 1ml
