A diagram of a human red blood cell is shown. The length of line $X Y$ on the diagram is 40 mm . The actual width of the cell is 0.008 mm . What is the magnification of the diagram?
Explanation
The magnification of the diagram can be calculated using the formula: magnification = (actual width) / (width on diagram). In this case, the actual width is 0.008 mm and the width on the diagram is 40 mm. Therefore, the magnification is 0.008 / 40 = 1/5000 = 1/50000.
