Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To calculate total magnification, we multiply the magnification of the objective lens by the magnification of the ocular lens.

Total magnification = objective magnification × ocular magnification
Total magnification = (45 × 10) × (1 × 10)
Total magnification = 450 × 10
Total magnification = 4500

However, the question asks for the answer in scientific notation, which is 4.5 × 10^3. Therefore, the best choice is C.
