Problem

A compound microscope is fitted with an objective of focal length 0.4 cm0.4\,\text{cm} and an eyepiece of focal length 2.0 cm2.0\,\text{cm}. The distance between the focal planes of the two lenses is 16 cm16\,\text{cm}. Taking the least distance of distinct vision as 25 cm25\,\text{cm}, calculate the approximate overall magnification when the final image is formed at infinity.
