What is microscope magnification and how is it calculated?

Microscope magnification is the microscope’s ability to enlarge an image of an object through a series of lenses to a size multiple times larger than the actual size of the object. To calculate the magnification on a microscope multiply the magnification power of the eyepiece you are using by the objective currently in position.
