Add the magnification of the eyepiece to the objective you are using.

|
|
Add the magnifications of all three objectives on your microscope.

|
|
Multiply the magnifications of all three objectives on your microscope.
|
|
|
Multiply the magnification of the eyepiece and the objective you are using.

Detailed explanation-1: -Total Magnification: To figure the total magnification of an image that you are viewing through the microscope is really quite simple. To get the total magnification take the power of the objective (4X, 10X, 40x) and multiply by the power of the eyepiece, usually 10X.
Detailed explanation-2: -Total magnification is calculated by multiplying the objective lens power X the ocular lens power.
Detailed explanation-3: -Simply multiply the magnification of the eyepiece by the magnification of the objective lens. The magnification of both microscope eyepieces and objectives is almost always engraved on the barrel (objective) or top (eyepiece). Look for numbers like 10x, 12.5x, etc.
Detailed explanation-4: -The total magnification is determined by multiplying the magnification of the ocular and objective lenses.
Detailed explanation-5: -To calculate the total magnification of a microscope, simply multiply the power of the ocular lens by the power of the objective lens. For example, if the ocular lens is 5X and the objective lens is 12X, the total magnification would be 5 x 12 or 60X.
