Explanation:
The eyepiece (also called the ocular lens) and the objective lens (also called the LPO) both contribute to the overall magnification of an object when viewed under a microscope. To find the total magnification, you would multiply the eyepiece magnification by the objective lens magnification.
In this case, the eyepiece has a magnification of 5x and the objective lens has a magnification of 10x. Therefore, the total magnification of the object being viewed is:
5x * 10x = 50x
So the object was magnified 50 times.
