Let f1 be the focal length of convex lens and f2 be the focal length of concave lens.
 
If F is focal length of comined lenses, then we have, 1/F = ( 1/f1 ) + ( 1/f2 )
 
1/F = (1/20) - (1/25) = 1/100
 
hence focal length F of combined lenses is 100 cm
 
power of convex lens P1= 1/0.2 = +5
power of concave lens P2= 1/(-0.25) = - 4
 
power of combined lens = P1 + P2 = +5 -4 = +1
