1/f = 1/60+1/60,
1/f = 1/30.

The combination of concave f = 30
add with convex,
1/f = 1/30+1/15,
1/f =1/10,
f = 10 cm of combination.

1/f= -1/60-1/60.
1/f= -1/30.
1/f' = -1/30+1/15.
1/f'= 1/30,
f'=30.

I think 1/f=1/15 -1/60 -1/60.

f1=f2=-60.
1/F1= 1/-60 +1/-60 =1/-30,
F1 =-30 and given F2 = 15,
1/F = 1/-30 +1/15 =1/30,
F =30 ans.

1/f = 1/f1+1/f2.
1/f = 1/60+1/60.
1/f = 1/30 answer.

1/f = -1/f1+1/f2-1/f3
1/f= -1/60+1/15-1/60
1/f = 4/60 -2/60
1/f = 2/60
f = 30cm.

Formula: 1/f = 1/f1 + 1/f2.

According to the problem 60 cm on the either side i.e. f1 = f2 = 60 & focal length combination f = ?
Now, 1/f = 1/f1 + 1/f2.
1/f = 1/60 + 1/60.
= 1/30. So combination is 30.

1/f=1/f1+1/f2.
concave=-ve.
convex=+ve.
1/f=1/15-(1/60+1/60).
.: f=30.
