Michaelis Menten equation:

v_0 = \frac{V_{max}[S]}{K_M + [S]}

\frac{1}{v_0} = \frac{K_M + [S]}{V_{max}[S]}

\frac{1}{v_0} = (\frac{K_M }{V_{max}}) \frac{1}{[S]} + \frac{1}{V_{max}}

This is an equation of a straight line ( y = mx + c) with slope = (KM / Vmax ) and y-intercept = (1/ Vmax)

From the given data:

Trial [S]0 v0 1/[S]0 1/v0
1 0.00051 3.00E-05 1960.784314 3.33E+04
2 0.00026 2.00E-05 3846.153846 5.00E+04
3 0.00013 1.00E-05 7692.307692 1.00E+05

Plot 1/v_0 vs  1/[S]

Fitting a straight line to the data points gives:

y-intercept = 1/ Vmax = 7864.9 \Rightarrow Vmax  = 0.00012

Slope = KM / Vmax = 11.833 \Rightarrow KM = Vmax * 11.833 \Rightarrow   KM = 0.0015
