Magnification is a measure of the size of an image compared to the size of the object. Lenses and curved mirrors can produce magnified images.
Magnification = Actual length of image / Actual length of object
Actual length of object = 0.02mm
Actual length of image = 2mm
Magnification = 2mm / 0.02mm
= 100
