Question

A microscope has a setting that magnifies an object so that it appears 100 times as large when viewed through the eyepiece. If a tiny insect is 0.014 cm long, how long will the insect appear in cm through the microscope? The insect will appear cm long.

Answer 1

1.4 centimeters.

Explanation:

All you do is multiply the size of the bug (0.014) by how much the microscope will make it bigger (100). If you don't have a calculator just move the decimal two times to the right.
