### **Example Calculation**

**Problem:**  
If the magnification at low power is $$ 40 \times $$ and the $$ \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Lp}} $$ is $$ 5 $$ mm, what is the FOV at high power if the magnification at high power is $$ 400 \times $$?

**Solution:**

The formula to determine the Field of View (FOV) at high power is:

$$
\mathrm{FOV}_{\text{HP}} = \frac{\operatorname{Mag}_{\text{LP}} \times \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{LP}}}{\operatorname{Mag}_{\text{HP}}}
$$

Plugging in the given values:

$$
\begin{aligned}
\mathrm{FOV}_{\text{HP}} &= \frac{40 \times 5 \text{ mm}}{400} \
&= \frac{200 \text{ mm}}{400} \
&= 0.5 \text{ mm}
\end{aligned}
$$

Converting millimeters to micrometers:

$$
0.5 \text{ mm} = 500 \, \mu\text{m}
$$

**$$ \therefore $$** The FOV at high power is **$$ 0.5 $$ mm** or **$$ 500 \, \mu\text{m} $$**.

### **Practice Problems**

**Practice Problem \#1:**  
*Determine the FOV of this medium.*

*Given:*  
- Magnification at medium power: $$ 100 \times $$  
- $$ \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Mp}} = 2 $$ mm  
- Magnification at high power: $$ 400 \times $$

**Solution:**  
$$
\mathrm{FOV}_{\text{HP}} = \frac{\operatorname{Mag}_{\text{Mp}} \times \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Mp}}}{\operatorname{Mag}_{\text{HP}}} = \frac{100 \times 2 \text{ mm}}{400} = 0.5 \text{ mm} \text{ or } 500 \, \mu\text{m}
$$

**Answer:**  
$$ \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{HP}} = 0.5 $$ mm or $$ 500 \, \mu\text{m} $$

**Practice Problem \#2:**  
*Determine the FOV at low power.*

*Given:*  
- Magnification at low power: $$ 25 \times $$  
- $$ \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Lp}} = ? $$  
- Magnification at medium power: $$ 100 \times $$  
- $$ \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Mp}} = 2 $$ mm

**Solution:**  
Using the formula rearranged to find $$ \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Lp}} $$:

$$
\mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Lp}} = \frac{\operatorname{Mag}_{\text{LP}} \times \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{LP}}}{\operatorname{Mag}_{\text{HP}}}
$$

However, since we need to find $$ \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Lp}} $$ given $$ \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Mp}} $$:

$$
\mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Mp}} = \frac{\operatorname{Mag}_{\text{LP}} \times \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Lp}}}{\operatorname{Mag}_{\text{MP}}}
$$

Solving for $$ \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Lp}} $$:

$$
\mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Lp}} = \frac{\mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Mp}} \times \operatorname{Mag}_{\text{MP}}}{\operatorname{Mag}_{\text{LP}}} = \frac{2 \text{ mm} \times 100}{25} = 8 \text{ mm}
$$

**Answer:**  
$$ \mathrm{FOV}_{\text{Lp}} = 8 $$ mm
