    A)            45 dioptres                            

    B)            9 dioptres

    C)            1/9 dioptre                            

    D)            6 dioptres

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                       \[\frac{1}{F}=\frac{1}{{{f}_{1}}}+\frac{1}{{{f}_{2}}}=\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{25}\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[F=\frac{100}{9}\]\[cm=\frac{1}{9}\]\[metre\]            \[\therefore \] \[P=\frac{1}{1/9}D=9D\]
