A
4X
B
40X
C
400X
D
4000X
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A microscope’s total magnification is a combination of the eyepieces and the objective lens. For example, a biological microscope with 10x eyepieces and a 40x objective has 400x magnification.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer. Answer: For example, if the eyepiece magnification is 10x and the objective lens in use has a magnification of 4x, the total magnification is 10 × 4 = 40.

Detailed explanation-3: -The total magnification is the magnification of the ocular lens (10) multiplied by the objective lens (100). If we multiply 100 x 10 = 1, 000. This is noted as the total magnification is 1000x, or 1000 times the size of the specimen.
