If 15 um size object is observed under light microscope, using 5X eyepiece and 10X objective, its magnified image size will be:

Remember that Image Size (I) = Actual Size (A) x Magnification (M), or I=A x M, is the formula for magnification.
The magnification is the result of the different magnifications of the objective and eyepiece lenses.
M is equal to 5 x 10 = 50.
The inquiry requests the image’s size, thus
I equals 15 x 50 = 750 um (A x M).
