A 6:1 zoom lens magnifies the image by what percentage?

Explanation:
Magnification is the factor by which the image size is increased compared to the object's size. A sixfold (6x) magnification means the image is six times larger than the object. To turn that into a percentage, multiply by 100: 6 × 100 = 600%. So a 6:1 zoom lens magnifies the image by 600%. The other options would correspond to smaller or larger magnifications than six times.
