Answer:

To calculate the magnification of the image formed by a magnifying glass, we can use the formula:

Magnification (M) = Image height (h_i) / Object height (h_o)

However, since the question does not provide information about the heights of the object and the image, we cannot directly calculate the magnification using the given values.

To determine the magnification, we need either the height of the object or the height of the image in order to compare them. Without this information, it is not possible to calculate the magnification accurately.
