An oncologist examines a biopsy sample of a liposarcoma tumor under a light microscope to assess its growth rate. The oncologist counts a total of 145 cells across several fields of view and records their stages in the cell cycle. The results are shown in the table below:
| Stage of cell cycle | Number of cells |
|---|---|
| Interphase | 93 |
| Prophase | 18 |
| Metaphase | 13 |
| Anaphase | 14 |
| Telophase | 7 |
Use the following equation to calculate the mitotic index for this biopsy sample:
mitotic index=number of cells undergoing mitosistotal number of cells×100 \text{mitotic index} = \frac{\text{number of cells undergoing mitosis}}{\text{total number of cells}} \times 100 mitotic index=total number of cellsnumber of cells undergoing mitosis×100Give your answer to three significant figures.
