Question

If your high power objective is 40x and your eyepiece is 15x, the total magnification is _____x. 55 600 900 100

Answer 1

Ocular Lens * Objective Lens = Total Magnification

15 * 40 = 600x

Answer 2

Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is 600

Explanation-

As per the question, the magnification of high power objective $(m_{o} )$ = 40x

Magnification of eye piece $(m_{e} )= 15x$

Total magnification

$m= m_{o} \times m_{e}$

Putting the values of $m_{o}\text{ and }m_e$

= 40×15

= 600

Thus, total magnification= 600x
