In order to solve for the total phytoplankton cells you need the following data:

a) Total volume of the sample filtered 

b) Final volume of the concentrated sample

c) Concentration factor  (CF) 

d) Dilution Factor (DF)

e) Area of your field of view (high power field,  whipple disk or haemacytometer)

 Cells/mL = Total number of cells counted/number of field of view X  DF X CF
