Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -This is noted as the total magnification is 1000x, or 1000 times the size of the specimen.
Detailed explanation-2: -Grades 1-8 typically will buy a monocular compound microscope with 3 objective lenses: 4x, 10x, 40x for maximum total magnification of 400x.
Detailed explanation-3: -So, if you are viewing your slide under the 40x objective lens you would multiply that by the 10x of the ocular lens for a total magnification of 400x.
Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -Therefore, an objective lens of 4x will give you a total magnification of 40x in this case.
