Magnification Calculator

Work out any one of magnification, image size and actual size from the other two. Each size can be in its own unit, so an image in millimetres and a cell in micrometres need no converting by hand.

What you can do

  • Solves M = I/A for any of the three
  • Takes each size in cm, mm, μm or nm
  • Calibrates an eyepiece graticule against a stage micrometer
  • Gives answers in mm, μm and nm with step-by-step working
  • Practice questions on photographs, scale bars and graticules
