For an enzyme catalyzed reaction, a Lineweaver-Burk plot gave the following data: slope $=40 \mathrm{s}$, intercept $=4\left(\mathrm{mmol} \mathrm{dm}^{-3} \mathrm{s}^{-1}\right)^{-1}$. If the initial concentration of enzyme is $2.5 \times 10^{-9} \mathrm{mol} \mathrm{dm}^{-3}$, what is the catalytic efficiency (in $\mathrm{dm}^{-3} \left.\mathrm{mol}^{-1} \mathrm{s}^{-1}\right)$ of the reaction?
(a)$10^{5}$
(b)$10^{6}$
(c)$10^{7}$
(d)$10^{4}$
