What would be the magnification of a specimen viewed with a compound light microscope that has an objective power of 100x and an ocular lens power of 10x? A. 90 B. 110 C. 200 D. 1,000

Extrinix:

If a compound light microscope has an objective power of `20x` and an ocular lens power of `10x`, the magnification would be 200x. So from this, what would `100x` objective and `10x` ocular be?

kaibeth:

1000

Extrinix:

1000x* but you would be correct, good job.

kaibeth:
