Question 46
Easy

The equation that relates the optical power of a lens to its focal length is:

power (in dioptres)=1focal length (in metres) \text{power (in dioptres)} = \frac{1}{\text{focal length (in metres)}} power (in dioptres)=focal length (in metres)1​

The optical power of a magnifying glass lens is +6.25 dioptres+6.25\text{ dioptres}+6.25 dioptres.

Use the equation to calculate the focal length of this lens in cm\text{cm}cm.
