E=hc/wav. len
E = (6.62 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8)/0.0275 x 10^-9
E = 7.22182 x 10^-15 J
To convert to eV divide by 1.6 x 10^-19
E = 7.22182 x 10^-15/1.6 x 10^-19 eV
E =45.36 x 10^3 eV
Th energy, E, of a single x-ray photon in eV is = 45.36keV.

Number of photons, n = total energy/ energy of photon
n = 3.85 x 10^-6/7.22182 x 10^-15
n = 5.33 x 10^8 photons
