The focal lengths of the objective lens and the eye lens of a Galilean telescope are $30\, cm$ and $3.0\, cm$ respectively. The telescope produces a virtual,erect image of an object situated far away from it at the least distance of distinct vision from the eye lens. In this condition,the magnifying power of the Galilean telescope should be:

  • A
    $+11.2$
  • B
    $-11.2$
  • C
    $-8.8$
  • D
    $+8.8$
