Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(1 / 2\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & \text { Using } m=\frac{f}{u-f} \\ & m_1=\frac{6}{18-6}=\frac{1}{2}\end{aligned}\)

\(\mathrm{m}_2=\frac{6}{18+6}=\frac{1}{4} \quad \therefore \frac{\mathrm{~m}_2}{\mathrm{~m}_1}=\frac{1}{2}\)
