Use the hemocytometer graph below to calculate the concentration of viable, non-viable cells, and the percentage of viable cells using the equations below. Equations: \( \begin{array}{l}\text { Viable Cell Count } \\ \text { (live cells per millilitre) }\end{array} \quad=\quad \begin{array}{c}\text { Number Live Cells Counted } \\ \begin{array}{c}\text { Number of large corner } \\ \text { Squares counted }\end{array}\end{array} \) \( \begin{array}{l}\text { Non-viable Cell Count } \\ \text { (dead cells per millilitre) }\end{array} \quad=\quad \frac{\text { Number Dead Cells Counted }}{\begin{array}{c}\text { Number of large corner } \\ \text { Squares counted }\end{array}} \times \quad \begin{array}{l}\text { Dilution factor } \\ \text { (in this example 2) } \times 10,000\end{array} \)
