Remember, image size is just the length in mm. Use the scale given with the cell to work out magnification (M=I/A) and use this value to work out the actual length (A=I/M). Don't forget to standardise the units.

Measure the length with your ruler- this is the image size, so now you have the image size and actual length. Can you anticipate what to do next?

Find the magnification using the image size and actual length? But how do I find the magnification since the actual length is unknown?
