उत्तर
Is the ratio of the angle of the image subtended at the eye to the angle subtended by the object at the eye when lying at least a distance of distinct vision.
m = 1 + `D/f` where f is the focal length of the lens.
One way to get more magnifying power is to use a lens with a shorter focal length.
