    This document contains a table with data from an experiment measuring coliform levels in water samples. The table shows the number of tubes used in the experiment, the volume of water placed in each tube (10ml, 1ml, or 0.1ml), the number of tubes with a positive reaction, and the most probable number of coliform organisms per 100ml of the original water sample based on the results. A note explains how the most probable numbers are rounded to varying degrees of precision depending on the range of values.
