    I have a math q. on microscopes
    I'm really stuck with this question and I have no idea how to start.

    Q. A compound microscope has an objective lens with a focal length of 5 cm and an eyepiece with a focal length of 1 cm. If its magnification is 100X then the tube length is:

    A 12 cm
    B 0.05 cm
    C 20 cm
    D 6 cm
    E 10 cm

    I really need help in working out this question, please.
