Hi Vishesh Gupta,

we know that:

begin mathsize 12px style 1 over straight f equals fraction numerator left parenthesis straight mu minus 1 right parenthesis over denominator straight R end fraction 1 over straight f equals space left parenthesis 1.5 minus 1 right parenthesis space open parentheses 1 over 20 plus 1 over 20 close parentheses 1 over straight f equals 0.5 cross times 1 over 10 1 over straight f equals 1 over 20 straight f equals 20 cm end style

Thus, the incident rays will converge at a distance 20 cm.
