Understand the components of a compound microscope: It consists of an objective lens and an eyepiece lens, each contributing to the overall magnification.
Identify the magnification power of the objective lens. This is usually marked on the lens itself, for example, 10x, 40x, etc.
Identify the magnification power of the eyepiece lens. This is also marked on the lens, typically around 10x.
To find the total magnification, multiply the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the eyepiece lens. Use the formula:
Apply the formula: If the objective lens is 40x and the eyepiece lens is 10x, the total magnification is calculated as .
