If an enzyme has a V_max of 15 mM/min, what is the velocity if the substrate is present at 1/5 of the K_m? A) 12 mM/min B) 6 mM/min C) 3 mM/min D) 2.5 mM/min E) cannot be determined from given information

When the substrate concentration is 1/5 of the Km, the velocity is approximately Vmax/6, which is 15 mM/min divided by 6, resulting in 2.5 mM/min.
