What is the magnification of a microscope?

The magnification of  a microscope is the extent to which the microscope will enlarge the size of an object viewed through it.

Magnification is defined as the ratio of the image size to the object size.

Mathematically:

  • Magnification = image size or height/object height or size

The magnification of a microscope is obtained from the product of the magnification of the ocular lens and the high powered objective lens.

The magnification of the given microscope = 10X * 40X

Magnification of the microscope = 400X
