To determine the magnifying power of the eyepiece used, you can divide the total magnification by the objective lens magnification. If the cell is observed at a total magnification of 200x under the High Power Objective (HPO), which typically has a magnification of 40x, the eyepiece magnification can be calculated as follows: 200x (total magnification) ÷ 40x (HPO) = 5x. Therefore, the eyepiece used has a magnifying power of 5x.
