In the diagram given below, there are three lenses formed. Considering negligible thickness of each of them as compared to $\displaystyle \left|\mathrm{R}_1\right|$ and $\displaystyle \left|\mathrm{R}_2\right|$, i.e., the radii of curvature for upper and lower surfaces of the glass lens, the power of the combination is

Official answer
From NTA’s final answer key for this paper.
(4)
$\displaystyle -\frac{1}{6}\left(\frac{1}{\left|\mathrm{R}_1\right|}-\frac{1}{\left|\mathrm{R}_2\right|}\right)$
