Working out concentration of KI

I did an experiment in which I added KI solution to various volumes and mixtures of cyclohexane and water, however I’ve now been asked to calculate the concentration of KI in the aqueous layer and I’m having difficulty with how to do this can someone help me?

There is too little information to help.

What did you actually do to analyse the aqueous layer?

Or did you work it out using the partition coefficient?
